This whitepaper explains that white-collar employers are not satisfied with the employability of fresh college graduates in India due to a lack of a common framework for employability. It suggests a possible way to solve this issue through a project implemented by The SAGE Foundation which has achieved impressive results in skilling low-income youth for jobs in the BFSI sector.
The best way to get low-income youth out of poverty is to train them for high-paying white-collar jobs.
Why?
The SAGE Foundation’s vision is centered around empowering young people, especially graduates, from low-income backgrounds to overcome the challenges that poverty often creates for them.
This includes equipping them with the necessary academic tools to ensure that they achieve their full potential. By providing education, resources, and support, the SAGE Foundation aims to break the cycle of poverty and give young people access to opportunities they may not have otherwise had.
Impact
The Sage Foundation believes in the ability of the youth and has impacted their career growth by skilling and providing better opportunities for India`s underprivileged students.
