# Skill Census 2024 in the State of Andhra Pradesh Orders G.O NO 13

Skills Development and Training Department Conduct of Skill Census 2024 in the State
of Andhra Pradesh Orders Issued.

SKILLS DEVELOPMENT AND TRAINING (SKILL) DEPARTMENT

G.O.Ms.No. 13, Dated: 13.06.2024

ORDER:

1. Skill development plays a critical role in the economic and social development
of a country. Skilled manpower is key to leveraging the opportunities presented 
by globalization. An emerging economy such as India requires a large skilled workforce.
However, skill shortage is evident in every sector of the economy, and it is proving
to be a roadblock to growth.

2. India has one of the largest and youngest populations in the world. However, 
about 80 percent of its workforce does not have identifiable marketable skills. 
In respect of Andhra Pradesh, with its large youth population, has immense potential
to reap the benefits of the demographic dividend. However, a significant proportion
of the youth in the age group of 15 to 29 years remains unemployed. This is primarily
due to the lack of focus on development of specific skills demanded by industry.

3. With the emergence of new technologies like Artificial intelligence, AR/VR, Big
data, Block chain technology, Internet of things (IoT), Robotics…etc, the nature
of jobs and the skill sets required to succeed in this fast changing job market 
are also evolving.

4. Andhra Pradesh is one of the States with largest number of Technical & Vocational
Institutions (around 310 engineering colleges, 1400 degree colleges, 267 polytechnics
and 516 ITIs) and every year approx. 4.4 lakh youth pass out from these institutions.
Due to the lack of sufficient job opportunities within the State, the technical &
vocational graduates from Andhra Pradesh are forced to migrate to other States in
search of jobs & livelihoods.

5. One of the foremost priorities of Government of Andhra Pradesh is to transition
into a knowledge-based economy. To gain competitive edge nationally and globally,
the State needs a workforce capable of creating, sharing and using knowledge more
effectively. It needs to develop skilled workers who will be more flexible, analytical,
and adaptable and multi-skilled.

6. In this context the Government of Andhra Pradesh has decided that a “Skill Census”
will be conducted in the State to identify the current status of skills among youth,
skill sets required in various industries and evolve a strategy to bridge skill 
gaps to ensure youth of Andhra Pradesh has competitive advantage in the job market.

7. This “Skill Census” shall be a comprehensive assessment and data  collection 
exercise aimed at understanding the skills and competencies possessed by individuals
and the skills demanded by industries, in other words “Skill GapStudy.” To achieve
this, a detailed survey of the existing workforce and demographic trends will be
conducted to map the supply scenario with the following objectives.

 * **Assessing Skill Profiles: To identify diverse skill sets present within the
   population across various sectors and domains.**
 * **Assessing Skill Needs: To identify exact skill requirements among various sectors
   like manufacturing, construction, service..etc**
 * **Assessing Skill Disparities(gaps): To pinpoint gaps between the skills in demand
   and the skills available, thereby highlighting areas for intervention and investment.**
 * **Informing Policy Decisions: To provide Government with data-driven insights
   for designing effective skill training, education, and employment policies.**
 * **Empowering Individuals: To enable individuals to access relevant skill sets
   required to compete in the market and make informed career choices, access relevant
   training programs, and enhance their employability.**

8. The Skill Census shall be conducted through comprehensive surveys, capturing 
information on education, work experience, training, skill proficiency levels (including
technical, soft, and digital skills), stakeholder consultations, and advanced data
analytics techniques. The exercise shall involve rigorous validation mechanisms 
to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the collected data.

9. The Skill Census is expected to provide accurate data for the Government, employers,
and other stakeholders, aiding them in making informed decisions about workforce
development and resource allocation. It will also guide educational institutions
in aligning their curricula with industry needs, ensuring that graduates are better
equipped for the workforce.

10. APSSDC (Andhra Pradesh State Skill Development Corporation) shall be the Nodal
agency for conducting the Skill Census in the State.

11. The Skills Development and Training Department shall take immediate necessary
action. All the Heads of the Departments are directed to extend their full cooperation
for the successful conduct of the “Skill Census” 2024.

12. This order issues with the concurrence of Finance department vide their U.O.
No.FIN01-FMU0MISC/218/2024-FMU-HTE, DT.13/06/2024 Computer No. 2467271.

(BY ORDER AND IN THE NAME OF THE GOVERNOR OF ANDHRA PRADESH), NEERABH KUMAR PRASAD,
CHIEF SECRETARY TO GOVERNMENT
