Pillar: Education & Training
Mandsaur trains 569.4 youth per lakh under short-term skilling programmes, better than the typical district. 52.9% of young women aged 15 to 21 are out of education, behind 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.
78% of registered enterprises are in services while 22% are in manufacturing. Only 3% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. Only 50% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12). Only 22% of ITI trainers are certified.
