About this event

The University Employment Bureau, L.U., recently hosted an impactful session for the students of Mahila Vidyalaya Degree College, focusing on a critical issue: Identifying and Bridging the skill gap for the jobs of today and tomorrow. The session featured Ms. Disha Kaushal, a Global Shaper at WEF's Lucknow chapter and a renowned design and strategy consultant, as the subject matter expert. Bridging the Education-to-Employment Gap Ms. Kaushal's talk addressed the significant gap between traditional educational curricula and the skills demanded by today's employers. She emphasized the urgent need to prepare youth with "life skills" from a primary level, advocating for a gender-agnostic approach to ensure equitable development. Her insights highlighted key areas of immediate and urgent employment, many of which fall under the umbrella of sustainability and resilience. These include waste management, waste segregation, recyclability, climate action, disaster management, crisis handling, and safety drills. Kaushal noted that these sectors are not just environmental necessities but also burgeoning career paths. To bridge the gap for graduate students, she proposed bridge courses tailored to the needs of the Digital, Business, Tech Services, and Growth Sectors. She particularly highlighted the importance of skills related to the Circular Economy and Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR), which are becoming increasingly vital in a world facing climate change and resource scarcity.
