Educational Outsourcing

Educational Outsourcing

Internet is no more a source of immense information and knowledge, in fact for the Indian students, house wives and retired persons it is emerging as the source of employment opportunities as in the America and European countries demand for the professionals for the educational tuitions is growing at very vigorous rate and these countries are looking at India as the outsource for the purpose.

Outsourcing is the term used for completing own work with the help of external agency. As there is lot of Indians with good command over the English language and computer skills and technological excellence of country is on the constant boost hence the country is emerging as the most reliable and trusted source for the various types of outsourcing. Comparatively low human labor rates than European countries and America are also helping India in this arena.

The recent trend of outsourcing is “e-tuitions”. Look at the per hour rates of private educational tuitions in U.K. [26 to 30 ponds] and America [45 to 50 $] but if an Indian is engaged for e-tuition the expense is reduced to something between Rs. 300 and Rs. 500 only. This is happening because traditionally Indian women are house wives and modern educated one are grabbing this chance because it provide facility of working from home and that too in the leisure time. Indian students perusing higher studies like the in Engineering, Medical and Management faculties are utilizing their after study time for earning handsomely. There are many I. T. companies from America and Europe working on the rate difference and earning many time more than any individual tutor.

e-tuitions have a kind of social effect on the life of Indians beside the economic gains. In the western world there is an emotion of hate for the hardworking talent Indians with a common complains that Indians are reducing the job opportunities for the natives. This educational outsourcing is proving turmoil for the fire as here Indians are getting jobs even without landing on the land of that particular country.

If we look at the essential requirements for the e-tuitions one needs a good computer, internet with sufficiently high speed and with VOI facility and a good quality web camera. All this is not a huge investment and even available at net cafĂ©’s of many cities in the country. The dominance of Indians can be reflected from the fact that over 70% e-tuitions of U.K. and USA are given by the Indians. There are very high chances that future professionals of these countries will be one, educated by an Indian teacher.
