The state government has mooted a plan to introduce a fresh set of vocational and skill-based courses in high schools and junior colleges, which will be recognised under the National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF). A six-member expert committee has been constituted, which will submit a report on introducing the courses for classes IX to XII. The plan will include syllabus revision of present vocational courses in line with the present-day industry and technological requirements. The committee will also give its suggestion of converting the present vocational courses aligned with NSQF.
