NITI report urges regulatory overhaul to unlock high-skilled jobs
NITI Aayog is a group in India that helps the government make plans.
It wrote a report about jobs for skilled workers like doctors, engineers, and lawyers.
The report says India should change some rules to create more good jobs.
It wants professionals to keep learning new things even after they finish school.
Right now, India doesn't have a strong system to make sure that happens.
The report also wants Indian professionals to be able to work in other countries more easily.
Other countries might then accept Indian degrees and licenses too.
It suggests making better rules for many jobs, like architects and health workers.
These changes could help India grow and give more people high-skilled jobs.
NITI Aayog released a report on India's regulatory regime in professional services.
The report calls for regulatory reforms, continuous upskilling, and greater global mobility of professionals as India approaches its demographic peak.
It recommends a structured continuing professional development (CPD) framework, noting India lacks an enforceable CPD-hour regime.
The report proposes Mutual Recognition Agreements, streamlined licensing, and recognition of qualifications to boost professional mobility, including in healthcare.
Sector-specific reforms target legal practice, advertising norms, bookkeepers, architects, engineers, and allied health professionals.
