Skill development involves developing one's skill sets to add value to their organization and career. India has a large young population, with 60% under age 14, highlighting the need to enhance education and training. Skill development is critical for India's economic growth as the working age population is expected to reach 63% by 2022. The vocational education market in India has grown at a 22% CAGR from 2008-2014 and is expected to require 300,000 workers by 2022 to meet demand. Key drivers of growth include policy support, private sector participation, and increasing awareness among employers and populations. Challenges include shortages of qualified teachers and infrastructure as well as lack of incentives for teaching.
