- What is the need for such kendras? Our country is facing a demand-supply mismatch in skilled workforce. Majority of our institutions remain disconnected with the requirement of the workplace. The higher education system has to incorporate the requirements of various industries in its curriculum, in an innovative and flexible manner while producing well-groomed graduates. This Kaushal kendra would take-up the vocational and skill education to new levels.
- Why was our college selected for this grant? We have been imparting Vocational training projects like National Mission for Empowerment of Women’; Modular Employable Skills’; Forest department’s Youth Skill Training Programme’; Women’s Development Project’; Puthu Vazhvu Project’; Setting up of Vocational Training Centres in Indonesia, Zimbabwe, and Srilanka’; Community Development through Polytechnic’, of Central, and State Governments for the past 50 years. This Vocational and skill training project execution experience, and its successful outcomes, would have certainly helped our selection. Moreover, Infrastructure facilities needed for skill training in different trades are created by top Industrial houses in our college campus, through MOUs.
- How will this help students get jobs? Our Curriculum is framed in consultation with Industrial houses, and it is also aligned with National Skill Qualification Frame work. Emphasis is given on hands- on practical training, and internship training. Industries are in need of skilled work force; our curriculum will ensure students to secure jobs in reputed Industrial houses, immediately after the completion of the course.
