5.1.2. Well trained manpower is pre-requisite for quality of service
The Policy also recognises that trained manpower is required not only to meet the
demand of tourism and hospitality sector but keeping in view that tourism is driven
by visitor experience, the people serving in the industry have to be well trained to
deliver a positive experience to the visitors.
5.1.3. Youth needs employable skills
The Policy also takes note of the dual challenge currently being faced by India i.e.
paucity of trained workforce, as well as non-employability of large sections of the
conventionally educated youth, who possess little or no job skills. The Policy
accordingly advocates providing employable skills to our youth in line with the
opportunities in the market.
5.2.
Synergy between skill development framework and sectoral growth strategies
The policy does not view skill development in isolation. Skills are germane to, but not
always sufficient for securing adequate economic dividends. Skills need to be an
integral part of employment and economic growth strategies to spur employability
and productivity. The skill development framework and ecosystem laid down by
Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, requires strong support from
relevant line Ministries for ensuring its integration with sectoral economic strategies
and growth.
5.3.
Tourism and Hospitality Sector Skill Mission
The Ministry of Tourism will set up a Tourism and Hospitality Sector Skill Mission to
create synergy between skill development framework and sectoral growth
strategies. The mission will forge partnerships amongst the Ministry of Tourism, the
Ministry of Skill Development, State Tourism Departments, Industry and Sector Skill
Council for tourism and hospitality to strengthen the skill ecosystem for hospitality
and tourism sector in the Country.
