Youth need to adopt skill based learning for career prospects

Employment or increasing the surface area of employability? The young generation of today may have to engage in multiple work ecosystems. They may not hold on to a single stream of career. Coversity is helping these young children to deep dive into core skill but increasing surface area employability by nudging them to get better…

Youth in Coversity

Instead of following the well-trodden path of higher education, a crew of teenagers, their eyes alight with ambition, arrives at Aarohi Coversity, their pockets lighter on degrees but brimming with potential.A passion for creation and technical expertise unite these young minds. Whether it’s the artistry of bakers, the mechanical know-how of automotive enthusiasts, the visual acuity of UI/UX designers, the environmental consciousness of eco-construction proponents, or the storytelling magic of digital illustrators, Aarohi Coversity empowers them to hone their skills and turn their dreams into reality.

So how does Aarohi Coversity help them achieve this dream? It all boils down to three key ingredients:

  1. Building a Skill Arsenal: Forget about cramming for exams – here, it’s all about building a robust skillset. They dive deep into practical learning, mastering the nitty-gritty of their chosen field. It’s like a skill sprint, equipping them with the tools they need to hit the ground running.
  2. Learning Together, Growing Together: Aarohi Coversity isn’t just a school; it’s a community. Young learners collaborate, share ideas, and learn from each other. It’s a constant exchange of knowledge, a space where everyone feels comfortable asking questions and offering support.
  3. Guided by Mentors and Guides: Seasoned mentors and guides act as their cheerleaders and wise owls. They provide invaluable feedback, helping these young minds refine their skills and navigate the challenges they’ll face in the real world.

This focus on practical skills sets them up for a career marathon, not a sprint. They understand that a career isn’t a destination; it’s a lifelong journey of learning and adapting. The job market is constantly evolving, with technology shaping new paths and automation changing the game. Aarohi Coversity prepares them to be future-proof. Here’s how:

  • Thriving in the Skill Economy: Forget about degrees as the gold standard. Here, skills are the currency! Aarohi Coversity teaches them to be adaptable, to embrace lifelong learning, and to constantly update their skillset. No skill lasts forever, so they learn to be quick learners and upskillers.
  • Mastering the Art of Learning: The world is moving at breakneck speed, and so are the skills needed to succeed. Jobs are changing, and careers may last 50 years or more. Aarohi Coversity equips them with “learning agility” – the ability to learn new things fast, unlearn outdated concepts, and relearn essential skills. They learn that anyone can be a teacher, and knowledge flows freely within the community.
Deep Dive in core skill
  • Deep Dives and Skill Spreads: For three months, they embark on a deep dive, mastering the core skills of their chosen field. They break down their goals into bite-sized chunks, practicing deliberately, and refining their skills step-by-step. But it’s not just about one skill set. They also learn “adjacent skills” – complementary knowledge that enhances their core abilities. An architect, for example, might learn basic coding to showcase their work online.
  • Building a Skill Portfolio: Forget the one-size-fits-all career path. Aarohi Coversity encourages them to explore their interests and develop a diverse skill portfolio. They’re not confined to one stream; they can deep dive into some skills while remaining generalists in others. This portfolio becomes their passport to the workforce, far more valuable than a traditional degree in this ever-changing landscape.

  • Beyond Technical Skills: The future workplace demands more than just technical expertise. Aarohi Coversity focuses on developing essential “other abilities” too. Creativity, adaptability, and a willingness to take risks are key. They learn to navigate human emotions, think critically and analytically, and collaborate effectively. These soft skills, along with strong communication and active listening, become the secret sauce for a successful career. They learn to articulate their ideas confidently, ask for internships effectively, and build strong connections.
Adjacent skills are equally important

Aarohi Coversity empowers these young minds to ditch the limitations of traditional education and embrace the future of work. They learn to navigate the unknown with confidence, equipped with the skills and knowledge to carve their own path to success. No degrees, no curriculum, just pure potential, nurtured and unleashed. The following video about children engaged with Coversity, reflects all the above thoughts.
