As part of the survey, Axis My India will reach out to government bodies, educational institutions, industries, and the general public to gather essential data on the current state of various skill development programmes.

"The partnership aims to identify data-driven gaps in key skilling initiatives, measure their outcomes, and enhance beneficiary participation rates, particularly in underserved regions," according to an NSDC statement.

NSDC CEO Ved Mani Tiwari told FE that the survey will be conducted over the next three months, following which a report will be released.
