New Delhi: Integrating education with industry, a set of schools, run out of old freight-carrying containers, are ready to be launched to provide students with job skills. Conceptualised by Safeducate, (a concern of Safexpress - a logistic services provider for e-commerce companies), these eco-friendly mobile schools are fabricated by joining four old containers together, and are intended to meet industry's huge need of skill.
"The idea is to get students (Class 12 pass or graduates) to study in an industry setup. The initiative has been undertaken under the aegis of the Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojna (PMKVY) launched by the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship and the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC).
"Our main focus would be on students from the disadvantaged sector, especially those from below poverty line (BPL) families. We have identified 35 job skills like warehouse packers and binners, delivery boys and truck drivers for which they would require basic communication and mathematical skills.
The courses are NSDC accredited ," Jain added.The first such school would be launched soon in Ambala in Haryana by Minister of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship Rajiv Pratap Rudy.
