#CareerCentre  Career centers should not be restricted to degree holders, instead it should be open to all youths striving for development. Centers should have interaction with nearby institutions such as rural schools, workshops etc... to give exposure to people at all strata. Integrating the nearby Small scale and household companies with career centers will help to create confidence in budding entrepreneurs.

#CareerCentre Corporate Social Responsibility(CSR) can be instrumental in this project. Industries and service sector companies can be made obliged to provide internships, Junior fellowships etc.. to youths from unprivileged groups. This will give preliminary industrial exposure to all our youth before they enter the job market or venture a business. All companies must include a page in their website for this purpose. This will become worlds largest internship program for skill development.

#CareerCentre Career centres must be established only near an essential office such as taluk office, collector office, banks, post-offices etc... to get a maximum public outreach. This will also make them easier to access by all means.

#CareerCentre Since soft skills are essential for professional interactions and proper understanding among communities. Academia and social media outlets should be integrated with career centres to disseminate professional skills. A website and an app must be developed for this purpose.

#CareerCentre It is unfortunate that most of the ingenious inventions of our people are named frugal inventions and are neglected without due consideration. Hence all career centers should also function as innovation centers to adopt and develop this technologies. All career centers throughout the country should be linked into a single network of knowledge sharing platform. Through this platform all innovations must be shared throughout country for optimal use of nation's resources.

I would like to open the subject straight away which talk about the career centres synced with some innovative reuse and recycle methodology to create jobs all over the country. Every big or small set up of waste producing and not organizing it's disposal properly, must be made compulsorily run a reuse or recycling unit employing 8 to 10 people as vocational training program and after certain period it becomes a sister concern of the main unit or can become BOT--Build -Operate -Transfer.
