The Tourism and Hospitality Skill Sector Council (THSC) has launched its highly anticipated report on the Demand and Skill Gap, alongside the Annual Industry Partners Meet. The Annual Industry Partners Meet 2024 was conducted under the theme of “Navigating the Future: Bridging Skill Gaps for the Tourism and Hospitality Industry.”
THSC is pleased to announce that the Demand Skill Gap Study report, was unveiled by Mr. Atul Kumar Tiwari, Secretary of the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, along with Ms. Jyoti Mayal, Chairperson THSC, in the presence of dignitaries: Ms. Vinita Aggarwal, Executive Member, NCVET; Ms. Neena Phuja, Executive Member, NCVET; Col. Mahendra Payaal, Chief Program Officer, NSDC; Mr. Risikesh Patankar, VP, Industry & Academia Collaboration, NSDC at India Habitat Centre on March 21, 2024.
A demand and skill gap study was deemed necessary due to evolving consumer preferences, government focus on niche sectors, and advancements in technology. The study aimed to address changing customer preferences such as adventure tourism, eco/sustainable tourism, wellness and medical tourism, and entrepreneurial aspirations. Additionally, it considered the government’s emphasis on niche sub-sectors like cruise tourism, rural tourism, and religious tourism, along with the impact of advancing technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, and automation.
The Skill Gap report launch was followed by an Industry Partner meeting which revolved around “Navigating the Future: Bridging Skill Gaps for the Tourism and Hospitality Industry.” The agenda encompassed a series of pertinent discussions and presentations aimed at addressing key challenges and opportunities within the sector. Scheduled sessions include insightful presentations on the implementation of the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) framework under the National Apprenticeship Promotion Scheme (NAPS), a panel discussion focusing on the multifaceted challenges and issues encountered by the industry, particularly concerning the demand-supply gap and the efficacy of the Recruit, Train, and Deploy model, as well as deliberations on the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and the significance of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
