The newly appointed chairman of the appellate committee of

AICTE, G.S.N. Raju, stated that Higher Education Institutions

should give utmost priority to skill-oriented training programs.

He stated his strong views while speaking about the importance

of training in digital skills, in accordance with the guidelines of

National Education Policy, 2020. He went on to say that if

institutions focused on digital capabilities, they would receive

higher rankings from the National Assessment and Accreditation

Council (NAAC), the National Board of Accreditation (NBA), and

other bodies and would also receive more enrollment.

Why are New-Age Programs Important for

Institutions?

New-age courses such as Data Science, AIML, Blockchain,

Digital Marketing, Cloud Computing, Cybersecurity, and Full-

Stack Development are essential because Digital India needs

professionals with these skill sets. Companies in India have been

hiring people for traditional roles, but now they face resource

crunches as these roles have dynamically shifted. Candidates

with new age skillsets often get higher salary packages, and

colleges that can help companies fulfill these demands see

higher student enrolment.

How do These Programs help bag great Opportunities?

The rise in demand to create new products and ensure they run

well, coupled with the popularity of such courses, has led to a

dramatic change in hiring strategies. Earlier, companies focused

on hiring professionals for well-defined roles, but now, they are

hiring them for skills such as analytics and data science. This, in

turn, has led to a change in their hiring strategy, where diverse

skills are given more priority over years of experience. The

change in hiring dynamics and skills is because of the new-age

demand that companies face competi ng in a crowded market.

Courses such as data science, digital marketing, cybersecurity,

cloud computing, and full-stack development give students the

necessary skills to perform well.

Why New-age Skills are Mandatory for the Institution

to Embed in its Curriculum?

The job market has seen software engineering as a career

option for ages, but now, a shift is seen in people opting for Data

Analytics or Data Science as their preferred career option. For

a college to stay industry-relevant and a preferred institution

among students who aspire for these jobs, offering courses at

the cutting-edge of innovation is a must.

How can upGrad Campus help?

Our Job Ready Certification Program includes multiple

industry-relevant certifications, live classes by Industry Experts,

Case Studies, and Projects to enhance a student’s expertise in

new-age domains like Blockchain, Digital Marketing, Cloud

Computing, Full Stack Development, etc which make them

employment ready and enhance their future career prospects.
