institutes run courses preferred by trainees and industry

Mission Statement► To generate “In house” skills to

meet up Standardized Benchmarks

► To increase employability► To produce an industry-ready

workforce► Win-Win Scenario for 3

Stakeholders i.e. Government, Industries & Workers

ObjectivesSkilling in the Industry by the Industry for the Industry and beyond on Specific Courses with Certification from the Government

VisionThe theory runs that companies will be willing to pay only for those skills that are strictly firm-specific, i.e., much more useful for them than for other companies – high degree of engagement and ownership on the part of the employer

► Trainees to be trained at the industry training centre ► Provision of industry based theory and practical assignments by

the sector/ industry experts will eventually reduce the existing skill mismatch, thereby bringing down the skill gap

► Decentralized approval of syllabus (within 48 Hrs) – Setting norms

► Industry specific Assessment & Certification by GCVT/ MES► Memorandum of Association (MoA) signed for 125 i-KVK Centres► 22 Sectors have been covered under the scheme ► As many as 136 courses (Long Term : 24, Short Term : 112) have

been identified► Operationalized web portal for I-KVK,
