Today, India faces a crisis in the area of “work-readiness” among graduates.

Employability of India’s youth has decreased to 45.9% with the percentage of highest employable talent in the age group of 18-21 years old, at 40% (https://indiaeducationforum.org/pdf/ISR-2021.pdf). This number will be substantially low in rural areas where it matters most. A youth with education but lack of skills and no employment can be a recipe for disaster.
Prerana has a well-structured program for multifaceted skill development to help students bridge this gap and pursue their career aspirations. From instilling confidence to speak up to preparing them for cracking an interview, Prerana goes all out in making them employable. Education-to-Employment is the mantra that Prerana chants all the time!
