Heads of All Institutions Affiliated to CBSE

Recognizing the changing dynamics of the global job market and the need for a more versatile and skilled workforce, the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 accentuates the importance of embedding skill- based learning within the school curriculum. By emphasizing on Vocational/ Skill Education, the policy aims to bridge the historical divide between academic and skill-based streams, ensuring that students are better prepared for real-world challenges, gainful employment, and lifelong learning.

Following the progressive direction set by NEP 2020, CBSE is proud to announce a two-days’ National

Summit on the topic, ‘Facilitating School to Work Transition’ as per the following schedule:

•     Dates: 19th & 20th September 2023
•     Venue: ICAR Auditorium, Library Avenue, Pusa, New Delhi-110012
•     Timings: 09:00 am to 5:00 pm
•     Link for participation: https://forms.gle/ioHa15hZVmFi85aB9

As we navigate the pivotal juncture of educational evolution, this event will highlight the essential role schools play in preparing students with the necessary skills and knowledge to thrive in a constantly changing professional landscape.

Alongwith featuring talks by eminent speakers, policymakers, educationists, industry leaders, and other key stakeholders, this summit will provide an opportunity to students to showcase the work being done in their schools for promoting Skill Education through the Skill Expo. Speakers will also provide insights into upcoming career prospects, essential skill sets, and effective career decision-making as part of the National Guidance Festival (which has been integrated with this National Summit).

Detailed guidelines for participation in the Skill Expo (and participation link) are annexed.

Principals from all affiliated schools of the Board are urged to participate in this summit along with their Skill Coordinator and two students.
