Abstract

This paper highlights that changing times have witnessed radical shifts in economic activities. The technological advancements have transformed jobs and businesses alike. The nature of employment has also evolved overtime. Today staying updated with technology and the rapid developments in the surroundings are vital to success and individuals growth. However studies show that the skill gap is widening every day and employers are looking out for skilled talent. This then calls for looking into what is wrong in our educational system and suggest models that can be built into our education system so as to up the skill quotient of our students so that they can progress through a well identified career path and ensure sustainability of the education system in the current scenario.
