Education should always be purposeful, growth oriented and productive. But somehow, present pedagogy is failing to produce dynamic and enterprising youngsters capable of facing the changing times and taking on the toughest technical challenges. Academic Qualifications no longer define the worth and expertise of a candidate and prospective employers are no longer looking at mere qualifications but at the employability potential of the candidate. Furthermore, the industry has neither the time nor inclination to train a fresher in skills required. Owing to tough competition, industry is ready to recruit only skilled candidates who can contribute immediately to the well being of the company. Hence the emphasis is on how best to integrate industry relevant skill set and regular college curriculum and expose students to real workplace culture.
The median age of the population in India is 27 years. That is, half of the population of the nation is under 27 years old. That amounts to more than 600 million people or about double the total population of the US. In order to account for the growing youth population, India needs to create 150 million jobs in the next decade, or about a million new positions every month. Since government or corporations cannot generate such large employment, most of these jobs need to be created by startups. Moreover India is expected to add over 10 million people to its workforce each year for the next 10 years. Employment for such a large workforce will largely come from entrepreneurs who build fast-growing companies that create tens of thousands of jobs. A large number of these entrepreneurs are students today – and they need all the inspiration, encouragement, and support they can get! The need of the hour is a sustainable platform to hone the skills of students and provide the support each individual needs to grow. A well defined solution is the establishment of Chestnut Club.
Skill and Entrepreneurship ecosystems are the driving forces of economic growth and social development of any country. Countries with higher and better levels of skills adjust more effectively to the challenges and opportunities of world of work. We also believe that entrepreneurship is the key that can unlock India's latent inventive potential. It will not only push India to the forefront of the world but also help raise the quality of life in the country.
Entrepreneurship is a key driver of our economy. Students exposed to entrepreneurship frequently express that they have more opportunity to exercise creative freedoms, higher self esteem, and an overall greater sense of control over their own lives and technical know-how. ChessNut Club is fostering Innovation within students and help them looking beyond what they currently do well, identifying the great ideas of tomorrow and putting them into practice.
