Pillar: Education & Training
West Kameng trains 387.8 youth per lakh under short-term skilling programmes, better than the typical district. 30.5% of young women aged 15 to 21 are out of education, close to the typical district. The Jan Shikshan Sansthan focuses non-formal skilling on dropouts and women who need a route back into livelihoods without returning to a classroom.
85% of registered enterprises are in services while 15% are in manufacturing. Only 4% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. Only 43% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12). Only 20% of ITI trainers are certified.
In West Kameng, which ranks 10 of 27 in Arunachal Pradesh for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 51.4 out of 100. It runs ahead of the national picture on women in the labour force at 63.3%. On skilling trainees who get certified at 99.6%, it sits close to the national mark.
