India, EU join hands for Skill India Mission
Several European stakeholders made their bids and shared views on how to make rural Indian youth more employable and increase their competence, on the second day of EU-India Skill Development Summit in New Delhi on Tuesday.
Speaking on the behalf of Rudoph Strahm, author of "Why They are So Poor: A Work Book for Development and Underdevelopment in the South", Nandini Nagar, a learning specialist in Switzerland, gave her insight into the reasons behind the economic and educational success there. "It's certainly not because of the banks," she said at the event.
"They (banks) constitute only 5.8 per cent of the total GDP of the country. It's the vocational educational system of Switzerland, which allows youth to be well-trained before he hits the job market, which makes the country special," said Nagar, adding 80 per cent of Swiss youth goes to vocational training institutes under its VET (Vocational Education and Training) system, and only 20 per cent opt for universities after schooling.Read More<> http://www.edubilla.com/news/others/india-eu-join-hands-for-skill-india-mission/

Australia paves way for preschoolers to learn Hindi
In a bid to promote languages other than English, Australia today announced national rollout of an online programme for pre-schoolers to learn foreign languages, including Hindi, from next year onwards.
The Early Learning Languages Australia (ELLA) Polyglots applications will help students and their teachers to learn new languages. According to Minister for Education and Training Simon Birmingham, the government would extend the programme to offer Australian pre-schoolers the opportunity to learn Italian and Spanish in 2017 and Hindi and Modern Greek in 2018.
Birmingham said almost 10,000 children had been part of the $9.8 million programme so far, with almost two in three students studying either Chinese or Japanese. The government has committed an additional $5.9 million for the national roll out.
We know life-long learning begins from the youngest years and our $15.7 million investment in the languages app highlights the Turnbull Government’s commitment to reviving the study of languages throughout Australia’s early education centres, schools and universities, Birmingham said.
The ELLA programme has been extremely popular with children, parents and educators and it’s exciting to see it not only expanded to a national rollout but to also include an additional four languages, he said.
