India Skills Accelerator (ISA)
The Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE), in collaboration with the World Economic Forum (WEF), launched the India Skills Accelerator (ISA).
It is a national public-private collaboration platform aimed at fostering cross-sectoral cooperation to address complex challenges in India’s skilling ecosystem, with a focus on innovation, knowledge sharing, and policy reform.
It supports India’s demographic dividend and aims to make India the Skill Capital of the World.
With 65% of organizations citing skill gaps as a major barrier, the initiative aims to close these gaps through inclusive upskilling, reskilling and aligning education with industry needs.
