The findings shared by Dalberg advisors focused on employers’ perception of value derived from apprenticeships as well as challenges associated with the implementation. Two-thirds of the survey respondents see net positive value in apprenticeship, 57% see long term benefits in apprenticeship training and there are returns to be made even during the apprenticeship period. Tapping larger enterprises to utilize their full potential, using a cluster-based approach, addressing operational pain points, etc. were some of the key recommendations. There was active participation from the delegates who made meaningful suggestions on various aspects such as on mechanisms of stipend disbursal, simplification of procedures, and integration of apprenticeship across skilling ecosystem. A gist of suggestions made will be shared for consideration of policymakers. The webinar ended with a vote of thanks from DFID and NSDC.
