New Delhi: Human resource development minister Prakash Javadekar has announced plans to integrate 1,000 hours of compulsory skill training with the academic activities of undergraduate students to make them employable.

But some academicians expressed fears that the move might dilute the main course for which they had enrolled themselves.

"The BA, BCom and BSc students will get 1,000 hours of professional training. They will get 250 hours of training on soft skills, 250 hours on information communication technology and 500 hours of two other skill courses," Javadekar told a media conference. He did not elaborate.

Officials in the HRD ministry and the University Grants Commission (UGC) did not clarify whether the additional training would be compulsory for all students, including those pursuing honours courses, or whether it would apply only to general BA, BSc and BCom students. The rollout date for the scheme was also not announced.

"This is at a conceptual stage. The minister is examining it," said a senior HRD ministry official. The matter was discussed at a conference in Mussoorie last month.

The ministry is yet to involve in the proposed project key stakeholders such as teachers, students and university officials.
