        abstract = {The present research investigates the impact of structured training programs on student’s skills and employability opportunities through bridging the gap between academic learning and industry requirements. Even though India is known for producing a lot of graduates, there is still a noticeable skill gap that makes it harder for students to get employment in their fields. With a sample size of 389 respondents chosen by convenience sampling, the study uses a descriptive research approach. A structured questionnaire was used to gather the data, and secondary data was collected from academic sources.
A critical analysis and evaluation has been carried out through the parameters like; how different training approaches—such as industry-specific programs, Practical training, and technical training—improve students' employment prospects. It shows that Industry-specific training has the highest positive effect on Job opportunities, followed by the technical training and Practical training. These relationships are statistically significant (p < 0.005). Overall Industry-specific training, technical training and Practical training significantly contribute to the job opportunities.},
