Abstract

“Education is the manifestation of the perfection already in man”- This is a famous quotation of Swami Vivekananda which concentrate with the education in a great extent. This quotation has written and published on dated 3rd march 1894 from Chicago, United State of America addressing to Singaravelu Mudaliyar. In the present context the above said quotation expresses a whole systematic approach for the education. Moreover skill Education is a process of development from the cradle to grave. Man becomes gentleman through education and he alone can be educated while the other living organisms are trained while his life is guaranteed by food, it’s glorified by education. However it’s an undeniable fact that no community or society or district or state can prosper without having educated manpower. Hardly a century back, was Education a class privilege, which relatively few people enjoyed. But today everyone has a right to education. With the passing of time and constitutional provisions the efforts are on to provide elementary education to the children belonging to 6-14 age group. Further in India “Samagra Siksha” Has been lunch for covering the school education from Pre primary, Primary, Upper Primary, Secondary and Higher Secondary level. But in the recent era skill development courses are being implemented in the general education in order to universalise the skills in general education. And more and more peoples were being engaged through skill in general education. The deficit of skill education in general education has been reduced gradually. In this context it is very much important to know more about the skill education in general education. JEL Classification: A20
