Skill and employment sector calls for job creation, GenAI courses

During a pre-Budget consultation with Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, industry representatives related to skill and employment emphasised the need to take measures for job creation and provide budgetary support to encourage students and professionals to pursue GenAI courses.

“There is significant potential to meet global human resource demands by establishing (international) language schools and colleges in India, which would create vast opportunities. We have also requested policy and budgetary support to incentivise students and professionals to undertake GenAI courses,” said Sarvesh Agrawal, founder and chief executive officer (CEO) of Internshala.
