Skillz for the Future is an ILD initiative that provides ready‑to‑teach, downloadable professional communication training packs powered by the FRC™ Model.
Our Vision:
Equipping Future‑Ready Communicators
Our Mission:
To provide PhD‑backed, sector‑specific professional communication packs that let educators and organisations start teaching immediately, adapt to their own context, and create greater impact without starting from scratch.
Our Track Record
The world’s only training‑materials library built entirely on the Fictional Reality Communication (FRC™) Model, a PhD‑backed cognitive framing system honed in 30+ years of market‑facing practice.
Research‑Driven
Each training pack is powered by Dr. Rita Vyas Nagarkar’s PhD‑backed FRC™ framework, showing how language, power, context and cognitive framing shape real‑world results in your field.
Domain‑Specific
Modules use authentic cases from multiple career sectors, with FRC™ Stage Maps reflecting real decisions, constraints and power dynamics specific to each domain.
Ethical & Responsible
FRC™ lenses help you spot hidden assumptions so your training stays persuasive and honest while foregrounding equity, inclusion and SDG‑aligned practice.
Practice‑Centred
Short, focused activities turn pitches, policies, reviews and even self‑talk into repeatable FRC™ routines participants can apply directly to their own documents.
Future‑Ready
Training materials equip people for roles across sectors and countries, giving them a portable FRC™ communication and framing system they can carry into new jobs and ventures.
