Introduction
Dropping out of school used to mean the end of a dream. But thanks to vocational education, it can now be the beginning of a new one. At the Nobel Centre for Vocational & Technology Education (NCVTE), we believe that everyone deserves a second chance—and we’re turning dropouts into skilled professionals every day.
Understanding Vocational Education
Vocational education is skill-based training that prepares individuals for specific careers or trades. Unlike academic education, vocational courses are:
Short-term
Hands-on
Industry-focused
They include areas like:
Computer skills
Retail
Electrical work
Fashion designing
Healthcare and wellness
These courses are designed to help learners enter the workforce quickly and with confidence.
Why School Dropouts Need Vocational Education
In India, millions of students leave school before completing 10th or 12th grade—often due to financial issues, family responsibilities, or lack of interest in traditional education.
Without formal qualifications, they face:
Limited job opportunities
Financial instability
Low self-confidence
Vocational education gives them a new path by:
Providing employable skills
Offering government-recognized certification
Creating job or entrepreneurship opportunities
NCVTE’s Approach to Empowerment

Focusing on job placements, internships, and entrepreneurship

Real Stories, Real Change
Take the example of Rakesh, who dropped out after Class 9. With no income and low hopes, he joined a basic IT and computer course at an NCVTE-affiliated center. Today, he works as a billing assistant in a retail store, earning a steady income and supporting his family.
These are not rare stories—they are everyday success stories at NCVTE.
