Wagons Skill Foundation
Initiatives will empower all individuals through improved skills, knowledge, nationally and internationally recognized qualifications to gain access to decent employment and ensure India’s competitiveness in the global market.
Skills and knowledge are the driving forces of economic growth and social development for any country. Countries with higher and better levels of skills adjust more effectively to the challenges and opportunities of world of work.Major challenge of skill development initiatives is also to address the needs of huge population by providing skills in order to make them employable and help them secure decent work.
Skill development for persons working in the unorganized sector is a key strategy in that direction. This will also inculcate dignity of labour and create greater awareness towards environmental, safety and health concerns.
Skill building can be viewed as an instrument to improve the effectiveness and contribution of labor to the overall production. It is as an important ingredient to push the production possibility frontier outward and to take growth rate of the economy to a higher trajectory. Skill building could also be seen as an instrument to empower the individual and improve his/her social acceptance or value.
Wagons Skill Foundation aims at enhancing the employability / self employment of artisans in construction, maintenance, repairs, industry (small, medium and micro) and production of utility items, in terms of skill development training. Since majority of them continue to work with less productive low-value hand/traditional tools, apart from skill development training, they need to be fully exposed to more productive high-value power tools also for fast operations and better productivity.
Our CSR initiative as commitment of business to contribute for sustainable economic development, aims at creating higher standards of living, while preserving profitability of the corporation. The traditional Artisans like Carpenters, Blacksmiths, Goldsmiths, Copper/Bronze smiths, Masons, Stone workers, Bamboo/Cane workers, Potters, Cobblers etc, constitute the vast chunk of labour in the unorganized sector of the Indian economy. Other than inherited skill, these artisans possess neither formal education nor income-generating assets. Besides poverty, these groups are also victims of social and economic exclusion, since there is hardly any national initiative for their inclusive development.

Overview
Choosing a career is not a very serious affair until Graduation | Post-Graduation. However, once you are done qualification, it is necessary to choose a definite career and decide a career goal. Choosing the right career, keeping the market in mind is necessary. In addition to this, selecting the right education institution is equally important. Unfortunately, many students are unable to discover their potentials and interests at this stage and this is when pressure starts building.
Career Guidance has become important as many students are facing a variety of career challenge. These challenges may include (but are not limited to) dealing with redundancy; seeking a new job; changing careers; returning to work after a career break; building new skills; personal and professional development; going for promotion; and setting up a business. The common aim of the career guide, whatever the situation of the individual being guided, is normally to help that individual gain control of their career and, to some extent, their life.

Career advice and guidance acts as a stepping stone for success. In order to make the right career choice, one must know the path they need to follow. People sought out career counsellors, for a change in careers, only after they got a job and were unhappy with it. Many students make career choices based on the most picked career among their peers. If a student doesn’t pick the right course, it would inadvertently affect their career choice.
To find the right career, there needs to be an understanding of what course to take and if capabilities match interests.Career counselling in schools ensures the right kind of help to take proper career decisions and stop students from making any mistakes. Wagons Skill Foundation focused on this need and conducted the session.

These challenges may include (but are not limited to) dealing with redundancy; seeking a new job; changing careers; returning to work after a career break; building new skills; personal and professional development; going for promotion; and setting up a business.

Career choice made turns the life of a person by a great measure. Although salaries matter, if you get into a field which you love, you will be happy all your life. On the other hand, if you just work for those extra bucks alone, you have to regret a lot.
