Over 12,378 youth have been employed and 14,421 trained through Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) and SWAYAM platforms, highlighting the Himachal Pradesh government’s commitment to skill development, digital learning, and preparing its youth for future-ready careers.
Prof Nadda, in his address, pointed out that SWAYAM — Centre’s flagship online education platform — is directly coordinated at the undergraduate level by the CEC.
The list was released by the Class Central, a free online course aka MOOC aggregator from top universities like Stanford, MIT, Harvard, etc.
India’s move to popularise online learning through the use of digital platforms is apparently aimed at overcoming the vast geographical distance between learning resources and the learners and are theoretically designed to democratize the availability of such talents to learners irrespective of their place of residence. While this may sound appealing, a number of parameters need to be addressed by the government agencies in a synchronised manner so that the effects of this noble venture can percolate to the lowest level of the education spectrum.
Despite humankind's extraordinary progress in every sphere, the 21 century is proving to be increasingly unsafe for women, be it the nation's capital or our own city of joy. To highlight better awareness, Swayam observed the International Campaign to Stop Violence against Women and Girls from 25 November to 10 December in Kolkata.
