Education and Training Industry in India
India is a country with more than 1.3 billion people. It is the second most populated country in the world with a fast-growing and influential economy. With more than 50% of its population under the age of 25 (more than 500 million), and more than 65% of its population under 35, India bestows a great opportunity for the education sector.
While India features prominently in the global education system, it was also ranked 26th in the world, in the QS Higher Education System Rankings in 2018. 12 Indian institutes made it to the top 100 list as per the QS world university rankings. Thus, there is still plenty of potential for more development in the education system.
People’s perspective in the past
In the past, India was one of the countries where education was not given much priority. The baby boomers – the generation before millennials were not much concerned about education or getting themselves educated. That is because the perspective of the people then was more concerned about outcomes than education.
However, as years went by, people in the country noticed how education plays an important role in one’s life. India has reserved education for girls in the past but has changed over the decade.
Now, we have realized that there are a lot of opportunities for students to study and enroll themselves in their favorable field conveniently. We see a greater number of students going for higher education these days with a lot more to continue in the coming times.
