Generation for Governments

We collaborate with governments and government-supported nodal agencies to accelerate employment and improve economic mobility.

How we work

How does Generation India work with government partners?

We help youth acquire new skills by designing and implementing outcome-based programmes in partnership with both Central and State governments, as well as other government-supported entities.

We also work with stakeholders, including government bodies and training partners, to strengthen public skilling systems. We train their staff to use our methodology, generating a better return on public investment.

Benefits of working with Generation

We work closely with the Central and State Governments to address challenges in the skilling ecosystem. Generation functions as a “hands-on” Project Management Unit to monitor project implementation based on Generation methodology.

We also work closely with State Governments to support improve outcomes in the state. In partnership with State Governments. We aim to integrate it’s proven 7-step methodology into the state’s skilling initiatives.
