The Career Center should give coverage to : Cities : the cources related to self employment be given priority rather than only courses which aim at getting jobs, as such courses will create small enterprenuers and thus generating jobs for other. Computer education to be made mandatory. Girls/ women to be given proirity in such courses. Goegraphical areas such as north east , J & K be given first priority.

All career centres should have some regional and national industry associations as "partners". Courses should be designed with industry representatives. The subjects and courses should be designed in flexible modular structures so that one can do in stages and get certificate for each level or module. Each candidate should be able to upgrade his or her marks. There should be academic equivalent grades so that these can be transferred to academic streams in universities.
