With ever-changing technological advancement and globalisation of business, the sector must develop the habit of exponential learning. But it is a gigantic task to bring change on such a scale where millions of people, coming from different culture, are involved.

In subsequent sections we have discussed challenges faced by NASSCOM and hidden reasons behind it. The case concludes with discussion on measure that NASSCOM should take to ensure better outcomes from skill development programs.
