Executive Summary

NHPC, NSDF and NSDC entered a tripartite partnership on the 9th of December 2017 with the aim of

instilling economic security and stability among young men and women by facilitating enhanced access to

employment opportunities. They supported skills trainings for 2,500 underprivileged youth in 8 sectors in

11 locations in the northern and eastern part of India. It represents an investment of INR 3,74,20,488

(contributed by NHPC under their CSR Budget). Seven training partners (Aelis, B-able, Empower Pragati,

IISD, IL&FS, Industree, Orion Edutech) were chosen to implement this project with the aim of facilitating

salaried or self-employment for at least 70% of their candidates.

Short training programs have been designed to have a significant impact on an individual’s standard of

living and social dignity. Duration of the training varies by job role and TPs also imparted training in Soft

Skills, Entrepreneurship, Financial and Digital Literacy.

The program achieved a 95% assessment rate with 68.04% candidates successfully certified in their

program of choice. 79% of the candidates have already been placed. The employers included well known

firms such as Bajaj Finserv, Edelweiss, Mitsubishi Electric, Airtel, Lakme, Jawed Habib and Reebok. Many

students also formed successful business self-help groups or started businesses at home. It is a further

achievement that over 50% of the candidates trained and placed were women.

Post the project, a third-party Impact Study was also commissioned to holistically analyze the impact of

the project. It examined the following: Quality of Training Imparted, Employment Opportunities, Change

in Employment Status, Change in Income Levels etc. The project achieved its objectives in terms of

placement targets and the training partner went above and beyond the minimum requirements by pr

Background Per the 68th round of NSSO’s Education survey, only 2.2% and 8.6% of the present working age population had received formal and informal vocational training respectively. In the same year, the National Policy on Skill Development & Entrepreneurship launched by the Prime Minister of India aims to train 40.02 Crore persons by 2022. The vision of the policy is to, “Create an ecosystem of empowerment by Skilling on a large Scale at Speed with high Standards and to promote a culture of innovation-based entrepreneurship which can generate wealth and employment so as to ensure Sustainable livelihoods for all citizens in the country”

The Mission has made great strides in formalizing and regulating much of the ambiguity that existed in

the national vocational skilling ecosystem. However, there is a deep recognition of the fact that the

future success and growth of the movement depends on industries taking a more active, participative

role. Skill development is listed as an activity under Section 135 of the Company Affairs Act, 2013 for

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) projects.

NSDC facilitated the operational partnership with various Sector Skill Councils and Training Partners to

deliver NSQF aligned trainings through industry-relevant Qualification Packs (QPs) that are becoming a

national standard for vocational education and skills. The project was also supported by the NSDF as a

financial receptacle.

All NSDC CSR Projects are structured and monitored as a sub-mission under the National Skill

Development Mission. The NHPC Skill Development project thus helps in mainstreaming a multipronged,

affirmative action approach in NSDC and the broader skill development ecosystem.

Commenting on this collaboration, Manish Kumar, MD and CEO of NSDC

said, “CSR activities have become an important benchmark of success for

corporations. CSR investment in skill training satisfies economic goals by

feeding back into the economy and altruistic ones by uplifting and

empowering various demographics. The Skill India Mission unifies

organizations, trainers and trainees on a single platform and with every new

project, it justifies the trust all stakeholders places in the ecosystem”. –

Mr./Ms./Mrs./Dr. _______, _____ of NHPC Ltd. has said that, “NHPC has a long tradition of commitment

towards Corporate Social Responsibility with a mission of executing and operating projects in a cost

effective, environmentally friendly and socio-economically responsive manner. It has undertaken a

number of community development initiatives in Health, Education, Sports and Culture, Afforestation

and other vital areas. The NHPC CSR Skill Development Project with NSDC and NSDF is a significant

contribution towards Vocational Education and brings several communities closer to the national

mainstream. We look forward to partnering with NSDC for similar initiatives in future.”

Project Overview

Identification of sectors, job roles and training partners is a vital first step towards a successful project.

The NSDC team considered available performance data of affiliated (organizations previously vetted by

NSDC) organizations working in these sectors to select project Training Partners.

Sample TP Ranking

Sheet

Once Training Partners are selected, a list of expectations regarding project conduct and operations is

shared with them. These are the partners who implemented the entire skilling value chain on the ground,

starting with Mobilization. Mobilization strategies were tailored to the locations, with door-to-door visits,

practical demonstrations, distribution of marketing material, focused group discussions, interaction with

local bodies, Alumni outreach, Awareness camps, mobile vans, tie ups with local employment exchanges

and NGOs, SMS Blasts, social media outreach etc. The participation of NHPC officials at the central and

field locations helped build mutually beneficial

relationships in local communities e.g. in

Lagama, Indian Army Jawans took part in the

mobilization process.

Post mobilization, there were counselling

sessions with the candidates where they were

briefed on course duration, methodology of

training, job prospects and initiatives taken by

NHPC. Post counselling and selection of

trainees, batches of students were formed for

training in the chosen courses.

Over a short period of intense and thorough training, students were taught an updated curriculum

developed in conjunction with the relevant industry, with modules based on modern industrial practices

and procedures. The unskilled, semi-skilled and uncertified trainees were brought up to par, and then

certified in line with national standards and guidelines, by the relevant national Sector Skill Council.

Disbursement of funds for the project was linked to the achievement of academic and professional

outcomes, in the following structure which is in line with the Common Norms that are standardized across

the country and are subject to independent audit.

documentation requirements of the project. They served both monitoring and review purposes.

Project Testimonials and Success Stories

Project Monitoring

A variety of methods were used to ensure that the project was vetted carefully and documented

sufficiently both physically and virtually, which included the following:

1. Centre Inspection – As the first step in contract monitoring, a basic centre inspection was carried out to ensure that centre facilities, trainers, qualifications and reported details met required quality compliance standards.

2. Weekly Calls with Training Partner – A key element of performance review was regular discussions with the training partner to ensure that project was on track and that issues were handled smoothly and efficiently

3. Monthly Updates – Progress in trainings, assessments, certifications, placements and other activities were documented in regular updates shared by the training partner with the NSDC team. This included mixed-media updates as monthly progress report, activity updates and training calendar.

4. Skill Development Management System – Data collection and consolidation takes place in the SDMS system which maintains a record of the trainee life cycle, validates certifications and financially audited.

Key Outcomes

1. Improved Learning

Training and assessment consisted of theoretical as well as practical components for a comprehensive

development of cognitive skills. Majority of the beneficiaries had only reached 11th to 12th class in formal

education and now needed the next level of preparation that would make them truly employable. Training

was localized, where possible, through language and content, to stay relevant to the people. Some training

centres were also able to provide audio-visual aids to students through presentations and simulations.

Pedagogical approaches were varied and included project work, role plays and case studies to keep classes

interactive and engaging. Students also had formative and summative assessments prior to the external

evaluations. Students also had the benefit of expert sessions and practice time on industrial equipment.

2. Personality Development

Along with learning, the secondary purpose of any skilling programme or educational experience should

be to develop according to one’s unique needs and potential. In the NHPC project, with increased

awareness of their own capabilities, candidates have more fully realized the scope of their potential.

Besides learning new techniques, many have improved their soft skills and have now gained enough

knowledge to start their own establishment and have chosen to be self-employed – thus taking on

leadership roles. Women have been particularly beneficiaries, particularly when they were breadwinners

in more traditional communities.

Besides learning new techniques, many have improved their soft skills and have now gained enough

knowledge to start their own enterprises in future, as many have shared in their success stories and

testimonials. There was also an emphatic attempt to build a sense of community through several events

and activities

.

3. Empowerment of weaker sections

Through the project, we reached out many marginalized demographics who were disadvantaged socially

and/or economically. Indeed, they were the target group in mobilization efforts. Candidates belonging to

these groups gained various transferable skills which gave them access to larger job markets and made

them more independent. This also meant they could add more to their family and household incomes.

Events Events played an important role in the candidate training cycle, by marking key milestones, giving

students variety and a change in routine and motivating them afresh to participate in the training. Of the

numerous events that took place during this project, a few are described below:

Industree Center Inauguration –

17th May 2017

To follow up a successful mobilization drive for Two shaft handloom weaving, an inauguration ceremony

was conducted. It was held at UTLOU Weaver Cooperative Society, on 17th May 2017. Local women

gathered in large numbers to understand more about Two Shaft Handloom weaving training and its

process. Shri Bedi Ram, Loktak Power Station Head, NHPC Chief Engineer(I/c) was invited as Chief guest

and Shri Rajesh Kumar, Manager (HR), NHPC, Nodal Officer was the Guest of Honour. After a traditional

lighting of the lamp ceremony, Thounaojam Romabai Devi, President, UTLOU Weavers Co-operative

Society and Hanglem Debala, Secretary, UTLOU Weavers Co-Operative Society gave the welcome address

and motivated the students for the training program.

Empower Pragati Center Inauguration – 13th May 2017

The training centre was inaugurated by Mr. Mian

Rayees (General Manager, NHPC, Baramulla) in the presence of Mr. K.K. Goswami (Sr. Manager, NHPC,

Baramulla) and Dr. Shabir (PRO of local MLA Mr. Shafi Uri). While interacting with the trainees, Mr. Mian

Rayees praised the efforts of the centre team for going door to door in the community to enroll candidates

for the training programme. He was impressed by the centre infrastructure and wished the team luck for

the future.

B-ABLE Center Inauguration – 18th May 2017

Inauguration ceremony of Singtam Center was attended by all 50 students of both Assistant Beauty

Therapist batches combined. Mr. P.C. Das, Senior Manager Human Resource (NHPC Teesta stage V), was

the Chief Guest and Guest of Honor was Mr. I. P. Sharma, President of local NGOs. Other dignitaries from

NHPC and NGOs also attended the program.

Program was started with ribbon cutting and lightning of lamp by guest. Trainees presented a short

performance. Welcome speech and company profile was given by Miss. Yangchenla Bhutia. Chief Guest

and guest of honor also address the candidates with an inspiring speech and appreciate the work for

community development. They also interacted with trainees regarding their expectation, problem and

suggestion.

Vote of thanks and brief about Skill India was given by Mr. Arun Mukhia (Project Consultant). More than

70 people were present including trainees, guests and media personals. Program was successfully ended

with a light lunch. The whole program was covered by Nayuma Television, a local news channel and print-

media.

Guest Lectures and Field Visits Empower Pragati organized guest lectures on various topics: Health and Hygiene, Hospitality: Growth

and Career prospects, Retail and Marketing, Financial literacy etc. These consisted of qualified industry

practitioners coming in to tell students about talking to students about real-life scenarios, problems they

might face, what expectations they should have and opportunities for success.

Field visits were also conducted so students could receive a briefing about how their chosen industry

operates, essential job skills and what their career horizons were in potential

Orion Edutech also organized Industry expert sessions and industry visits, so students could get

accustomed to the work culture at their future jobs. Post training, there was also pre-placement

sessions to familiarize students with personal grooming, resume preparation and practice interviews as

core modules.

Salaried Placement Report As per NSDC’s Skill Gap Reports, India has a huge need for professionals in these sectors so there is a huge

potential for industry-certified manpower to meet the needs of organisations. The employability of the

trainees increased significantly since most of the trainees were inexperienced. Many of them were

operating industry-standard equipment for the first time and benefitted from the additional training on

communication, IT and interpersonal skills. Placement was the primary motivation for many candidates

and they often gained a better working environment (food, transport, accommodation arrangements)

than the one they inhabited previously, which makes a huge difference given the unstable nature of the

Construction sectors. Placements were a key driver of the project and defined the project design in the

following ways:

All courses are NSQF-aligned and aimed at increasing employability through trade-specific

competencies

TPs were selected based on their past successes in placing candidates in a region and industry as well

as their tie-ups with employers

All TPs committed to 70% placement through jobs and self-employment

Training partners took a proactive role towards placements, supporting candidates before, during and

after placements voluntarily with counselling, preparation of CV, placement fairs, tie-ups with

employers, trainee tracking etc.
