The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is organising a two-day national summit in New Delhi on October 26 and 27 to discuss how schools can help students prepare for future careers.
It brings together school leaders, teachers, industry experts and policymakers to discuss ways to connect classroom learning with the skills needed in the workplace. T. K. Anil Kumar, Secretary of the Department of School Education and Literacy, and CBSE Chairman Mandeep Bhandari attended the summit along with other senior officials. He also stressed the need to build stronger links between school education, higher education, skill training and employment. The two-day event includes discussions on teaching methods, assessment practices, digital tools and skill education. Through the summit, CBSE and education stakeholders are exploring ways to make school learning more relevant to students’ future education and career choices.
The discussions are also linked to the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, which emphasises skill development and closer connections between academic and vocational education.
The fourth National Summit on “Facilitating School-to-Work Transition” is being organised in collaboration with the Sahodaya School Complexes of Delhi/NCR.
