And especially in country like India where major percentage of our education system is based on the conventional studies and due to poverty a large section of the population are unable to send their children to school or continue support till the completion of their education, hence most of them drop out of their school and take up odd jobs without any skill or training. Vocational Education is the skill based training provided to students through variuos courses to enhance their skill ability and also to find a lucrative job in the competitive job market.
