Invitation to Wiley Round Table discussion during CII Knowledge Expo on Nov. 20, 2014

  
Dear Sir/ Ma’am,

Greetings from Wiley!

I would like to invite you to join us at the Wiley Round Table discussion on ‘Cracking the Skills Code- Addressing the Skills conundrum in Higher Education Domain’ during CII Knowledge Expo, scheduled to be held on Nov. 20, 2014.

The academia, industry and economy on the whole, have been facing a major dilemma, where the employers, on one hand have been complaining about shortage of skilled professionals, and on the other Institutions continue to produce graduates who end up being unemployed or underemployed.Acute lack of marketable skills amongst graduates is a rampant phenomenon across industries. In recent times, job roles and career paths have been evolving at a pace which academia finds difficult to match. Learning solutions for professional development thus, need to strongly align with industry requirements, thus promoting job-readiness amongst fresh graduates and career advancement amongst working professionals.

With widespread presence across educational Institutions in India and globally, and trusted expertise in creating quality learning content for more than two centuries, Wiley, is committed to create innovative learning solutions to cater to professional development ecosystem across various markets. Wiley is working closely with leading training institutes, academic institutions and professionals to build new age training & certifications solutions, especially for Indian students. The event, ‘Cracking the Skills Code’, would serve as a unique platform to initiate discussion around building an effective ecosystem for offering learning solutions. The event would bring thought leaders & practitioners fromleading Corporates, Government affiliated Institutions and academic bodies, to Academicians, Corporates and Professionals on a common platform.

  • Ways to engage with learners at the right stage- Role of Institutes
  • Wiley as a learning solution provider in higher education domain
