Mr. Prudhvi Kokkonda strives to build a strong workforce to meet the Indian government’s call to become self-reliant.<\/h2>\n


\nInspired by India’s call to become “Atmanirbhar” or self-reliant, Mr. Prudhvi Kokkonda is on a mission to reduce the skill gaps among the country’s youth.<\/p>\n

In TALYouth hour, we spotlight Mr. Kokkonda, the founder of Skilleduvarsity, the world’s first Meta University. He spoke to us about the need to focus on skills alongside improving literacy and graduation rates in India.<\/p>\n

“Meta University is more of a collaborative activity,” Mr. Kokkonda explains. A student seeking a particular skillset can avail resources from a combination of top programs and research schools across a spectrum of reputed global universities. Institutions based on their specialties will come together and train an individual, he further elaborates.<\/p>\n
