If India is serious about being a supplier of talent, this should become a system. At the input end, this means: occupational language and cultural training built into vocational courses, not bought separately after graduation; certifications that foreign regulators recognize, so a qualification earned here is accepted there; visa and travel support, with regulated, low-cost recruitment that replaces the agent economy; and diaspora networks that help new arrivals find housing, jobs and community.
