The objective of this study was to  evaluate the impact of the Wadhwani Employability Program (EP) on placement outcomes across Delhi and Hindi-speaking regions, and to identify key factors that influence employability.

The Wadhwani Skills Network’s Incremental Placement Study, led by the Wadhwani Foundation, is a flagship initiative designed to measure the effectiveness of its Employability Program. With a sample size of 3,000–4,000, the study employs a mixed-methods approach, comparing treatment and control groups across partner institutions.

Beyond placement outcomes, it also examines underlying factors shaping employability, providing insights to refine and scale the program. Outline India is supporting this effort by developing tools, designing sampling strategies, recruiting and training enumerators, conducting data collection, ensuring quality checks, and leading analysis and report writing.
