Pillar: Education & Training
Firozabad trains 382 youth per lakh under short-term skilling programmes, better than the typical district. 56.4% 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.
63% of registered enterprises are in services while 37% are in manufacturing. Only 3% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. Only 49% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12). Only 38% of ITI trainers are certified.
In Firozabad, which ranks 44 of 75 in Uttar Pradesh for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 43.5 out of 100. It trails the national picture on women in the labour force at 24.6%. On skilling trainees who get certified at 96.5%, it sits close to the national mark.
