Media and Entertainment Skills Council is a non-profit organization that was formed in 2012. It operates under the guidelines of NSDC (National Skills Development Corporation) which is a financial supporter of MESC while FICCI (Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry) is the promoter of MESC. The council is registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860. The major objective of the MESC is to generate industry-ready skilled manpower, vocalization of secondary and higher secondary educational levels and also to enhance employability options for the youth through demand-driven competency-based modular programs. MESC plays an important role not only in opening doors for the youth but the long-term focus is on the revolution of M&E Education and Industry. The idea is to fill the gaps among the educated and employable to bring forth a reduction in the dropout rate in the secondary level of education.
