Objective
The Project objectives are to provide both Tele-Counselling and Personalized Counsellings – provides access to information about free and affordable Skill Development Centers and employment opportunities
Description/Summary
“Yuva Disha aims to connect unemployed Youth to the Skill development centers and job placement opportunities, through a TOLL FREE number reachable across Telangana and further, through Tailored Counseling Services and Workshops, thus, bridging the essential ‘information gap’. The initiative brings out the Skill gaps through placement assessment tests. Based on results, the youth are personally counselled and guided based on their skill needs and financial position. Once they take up skill training, Nirmaan Yuva Disha tracks them till they finish the course and then connects them to placement opportunities. However, at the assessment stage itself, if they are up to the industry skill standards, they are directly connected to various placement opportunities.” Being a tech platform, the major costs are towards the development and maintenance of the toll free helpline service along with counselling and infrastructure setup costs.
