Adult Skills Survey will inform policy
-
The government's plan to conduct a nationwide Adult Skills Survey in 2026 marks a critical attempt to align India’s skilling policy with actual workforce capabilities rather than assumed demand.
The three-month survey is scheduled to be conducted after the first quarter of 2026, using the comprehensive modular survey framework, and it aims to map skill levels across basic, intermediate, and advanced categories. It should help address identified skill gaps in the workforce. The core objective is clear: To pivot from supply-driven skilling targets towards demand-aligned workforce capability assessment.
