JuniorSkills Championship in collaboration with NSD
National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC), like Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), is an
affiliating agency for the training centres that run short-term courses under the National Skills
Qualification Framework (NSQF). NSDC is also the implementing agency for PMKVY, one of the largest
government initiative in the social sector with the additional obligation of preparing the youth to represent
the nation in international skills competitions.
What CBSE is to schools, in the school education eco-system, NSDC is to the Skills eco-system of the
country. Thus, the collaboration between CBSE and NSDC has special significance in view of the newly
launched National Education Policy (NEP).

Various School-level Competitions are being planned with the objective to blur the ostensible separation
of ‘vocation’ and ‘academics’ as envisioned in the recently launched National Education Policy (NEP).
It may be appreciated that in today’s context, education is not just about learning to know, but also about
learning to do, which necessarily means, ‘acquiring not only an occupational skill but also the competence
to deal with many situations and work in teams, and a package of skills that enables one to deal with the
various challenges of working life’.
In this regard, CBSE in partnership with NSDC shall be conducting the Junior Skills Championship –
JuniorSkills – 2021 and contribute in disrupting the vocational and academic landscape of India and drive
the youth ofthe nation towards self-reliance at an early stage so that they can contribute towards ‘Make in
India’ while focusing on ‘Atma Nirbhar Bharat’.

This competition envisages introducing the dignity of labor and inculcating the philosophy of ‘Work is
Worship’ in school children. It is an initiative to ‘increasingly incorporate elements of vocational education
into the school curriculum to expose children to its utility and its value as art’ as envisioned in the new
National Education Policy.
