21st Century Skills every graduate must acquire

The need for new skillset in the 21st Century

Today’s world is completely different from what it was decades ago. A century back, it was hard to imagine the kind of technology, work environment and gadget-enabled interactions we have today. This is called progress, and any civilization that isn’t progressing fast enough runs the risk of obsolescence and eventual extinction. Progress is driven by mankind, and at every stage of evolution, be it biological or technological, certain set of skills are required to propel the change.
