Synopsis

Bridging Education and Employment: Skill Development and Youth Employability in Shillong explores the growing gap between academic education and industry expectations in today’s competitive job market. The book highlights how merely obtaining a degree is no longer sufficient for securing employment, and emphasizes the importance of employability skills such as communication, teamwork, adaptability, and technical competence. Focusing on Shillong, the study examines the effectiveness of Skill Development Centres in preparing final-year college students for employment. It evaluates training programmes, institutional support, and the role of government initiatives in enhancing students’ skills and career readiness. The authors use empirical research, including surveys and statistical analysis, to identify skill gaps and assess how well educational institutions address them. The book also sheds light on socio-economic factors influencing employability, especially among students from rural and economically weaker backgrounds. By offering practical recommendations, it aims to help policymakers, educators, and institutions strengthen skill development frameworks and improve employment outcomes for youth. *****About the Authors*****Baiengskhem S. Lyngdoh is a Research Scholar in the Department of Adult and Continuing Education at North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong. Dr. Yoowanka Lyngdoh is an Associate Professor in the Department of Management at Martin Luther Christian University, Meghalaya.
