JAMMU, Dec 18: The National Skill Development Corporation International (NSDC International) and Physics Wallah (PW) have launched a new initiative called Bharat Innovation Global Private Limited (BIG).
This initiative aims to support India’s vision of becoming a global education hub. BIG is designed to align education with workforce demands, effectively bridging the gap between academia and employability through adaptable, technology-driven learning methods.
The initiative targets a wide audience, beginning with skill training formalization for students in classes 11 and 12, preparing them for relevant industry careers from an early stage.
During the launch, Ved Mani Tiwari, CEO of NSDC and MD of NSDC International stated, “Our partnership with Physics Wallah is a transformative step towards closing the gap between educational outcomes and industry requirements. The BIG initiative will empower millions of learners by equipping them with the necessary skills for a competitive job market. This collaboration reflects NSDC International’s dedication to improving employability and is consistent with our vision of cultivating a skilled workforce that adapts to a rapidly changing economy. We are collectively forging innovative learning pathways to ensure every learner is job-ready and can contribute positively to India’s development.”
Alakh Pandey, Founder & CEO of Physics Wallah (PW) remarked, “Education must be dynamic and adaptable, not a one-size-fits-all solution. At Physics Wallah, we strive to support learners with skills relevant to an ever-evolving world. Our partnership with NSDCI through the BIG initiative aims to create a more inclusive educational landscape, aligning education with growth at various stages of a learner’s development.”
