Pillar: Economic Participation
Pune places 19,074.3 apprentices per lakh youth, better than the typical district. The Apprenticeship Placement Cell is the administrative engine behind that number, matching trainees to employers.
80% of registered enterprises are in services while 20% are in manufacturing. Only 7% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. 86% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12). Only 23% of ITI trainers are certified.
In Pune, which ranks 4 of 36 in Maharashtra for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 57.5 out of 100. On ITI seats per lakh youth at 715.2 and informal workers with any social-security cover at 0%, it sits close to the national mark.
