Bridging the Skills Gap: How a Quiet Shift in Online Learning is Empowering India’s Next-Gen Workforce

With deep roots in education and technology, KGiSL Group’s skilling platform Skillryt is redefining what job-readiness means for students from Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities.

As India’s economy becomes increasingly digital, the gap between formal education and employable skills continues to widen, particularly outside major metros. While multiple platforms promise fast-track career success, few are grounded in decades of real experience in both education and industry.

Skillryt, an emerging online skilling platform, is backed by the KGiSL Group, a name that has quietly influenced the careers of thousands through its presence in IT services, healthcare, and higher education for over three decades. Drawing on this legacy, Skillryt aims to provide young Indians with the clarity, structure, and confidence needed to take on tomorrow’s jobs.
“Skilling is no longer a supplementary activity,  it is central to economic participation in today’s world,” says Dr. Ashok Bakthavathsalam, Managing Director, KGiSL Group.

“Through Skillryt, we want to ensure that motivated learners, wherever they are in India, have access to the kind of structured, practical education that leads to real outcomes. It’s not about learning something new, it’s about becoming ready.”

Learning that Meets Reality

The platform offers guided, practical programs in fields like Full Stack Development, Banking and Financial Services, Digital Marketing, Data Analytics, and Cybersecurity. The content is curated with a strong emphasis on industry alignment, and supported by live sessions, mentor feedback, and job-readiness tools. Importantly, Skillryt also gives learners access to a dedicated job board for at least a year after course completion, a small but meaningful step in connecting skilling to employment.

A Legacy That Powers the Platform

What sets Skillryt apart isn’t just its course catalog or technology interface, it’s the ecosystem it draws from. As part of the KGiSL Group, the platform benefits from close partnerships with industry and  academic institutions. This depth allows Skillryt to design programs that respond to real skill gaps instead of imagined ones.

Looking ahead, the platform is focusing on deepening its mentorship base, expanding into newer high-growth domains, and building stronger pathways to employment. It is also exploring strategic partnerships that can scale its reach without compromising on learner experience. Ultimately, Skillryt is steadily working toward its mission of designing  right-fit learning journeys for Indian students.
