In the last  episode of TuriyaTalks Season 3, Mr. Rajdeep Bhatacharya a new-age thinker, entrepreneur, educator, was accompanied by Turiya Communications' co-founder Sandhya Sutodia on the topic – New Age Skillsets, MOOCs & Jobs of The Future.

MOOCs or Massive Open Online Courses is influencing the mindset of people towards seeking online education irrespective of age.

Back in the past schooling and vocational degree did not have any relation with the practical knowledge required in the industry but MOOCs have bridged the gap providing knowledge that could be applied in the corporate hemisphere.

Companies are looking for candidates who are technologically advanced, have soft skills, and can get the job done in the stipulated time.

Mr. Rajdeep said, " Emerging technology is becoming widely popular in the education system."

Teachers have to be acclimatised with the new teaching format along with the students as going digital has become the new future, especially during this pandemic situation.

Platforms like MOOCs would develop study centers in areas outside tier 1 and tier 2 cities where the internet is still an issue in India as Internet connectivity cannot be a barrier for education.

Mr. Rajdeep ended the session by saying " People should not rely on a particular platform or course, they should streamline the necessities as per the requirement of individuals and then take the decision regarding their future.”
