India's New Apprenticeship Reforms: Stipends, Degrees, and Global Reach

The Indian government is making big changes to how people learn on the job through apprenticeships.

They plan to increase the money apprentices get to help them stay in the program.

The new rules will let apprentices earn college degrees while they work.

Also, apprentices will get opportunities to work with companies abroad.

A new website will make it easier for companies to hire apprentices.

The goal is to make apprenticeships more attractive, especially for women and people from certain areas.

Only a small percentage of India's workforce currently are apprentices, compared to other countries.

This will help them gain more skills and make sure more people are trained to work in important jobs.
