Contd from last Saturday
Though the list is big but few types of skills include:
Ø Literary Skills
Ø Language Skills
Ø Vocational Skills
Ø Sports Skills
Ø Cultural Skills
Ø Life Skills
Ø Employability Skills
We are aware that people who can read and write are literate. Literacy skills are all the skills needed for reading and writing. Language skills include ability to read and write or communicate in different languages or dialects. Knowing different languages is always helpful for any profession. Vocational skills are related to different vocations like being a technician. There are many different training sessions conducted for the vocational skill training by different training institutes in collaboration with Government and other agencies. Sports skills are ability to play and do well in any sport and similarly cultural skills include different performance. The important soft skill includes life skills and other employability skills which are must apart from having academic qualification to get placement or get a decent job. We have to understand differences between soft skills and hard skills or technical skills as all are important to be successful in life. We shall publish about different skill training provided by the Government and other agencies for young people.
