History

 

ICEDC was initiated by Global Education Solutions in April 2014 with support of the Australia India Council to create awareness and demand  for career education and development in schools.  After extensive stakeholder consultation, ICEDC was established to meet the needs of school based career practitioners.  The vision was to create a conducive platform for government, industry, academia and community to engage with schools in a practical and meaningful way, to enhance the capability, professionalism of career practitioners in India, inorder to help every young person leaving school have knowledge, skills, confidence to self-manage their career journey and have a successful, happy and balanced life.

 

The Australia India Council's purpose is to broaden the relationship between Australia and India by encouraging and supporting contacts and increasing levels of knowledge and understanding between the peoples and institutions of the two countries. It furthers the Australian Government's foreign policy and trade objectives and adds value to Australia-India relations.
