GOSS Development

GOSS stands for Global Occupational Standards for Skills, and it forms the foundation of GSDCI’s training, assessment, and certification system. These standards define what a person must know and be able to do to perform effectively in a specific job role, as per global industry expectations. GSDCI develops GOSS in consultation with global employers, industry experts, and skill specialists to ensure that the training programs match current and future job requirements.

Through GOSS, GSDCI ensures that every course has a clear structure, including job role descriptions, required competencies, practical skills, and performance criteria. This makes the training relevant, measurable, and outcome-oriented. GOSS also helps in aligning Indian skill programs with international benchmarks, allowing GSDCI-certified candidates to be recognized and employed globally.

The development of GOSS involves detailed research, job role analysis, and validation by industry partners across different sectors like IT, healthcare, retail, logistics, hospitality, construction, and more. Once finalized, these standards are used to design training content, assessment tools, and certification formats that are uniform across all GSDCI centers.
