First of its kind
The Tata STRIVE Bagchi Lifeskills Development Programme is a first-of-its-kind skilling
programme that came about as a result of the coming together of the government &
industry. It is currently underway at 49 Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) located in the
state of Odisha and impacting over 27K youth.
The programme introduces Tata STRIVE's Youth Development Modules (YDM) into the
existing 'Employability Skills' programme developed by NCVT. By doing so, the programme
seeks to provide additional life skills, a critical enabler for employment to ITI students.
The programme has trifold objectives:
To enhance their employability of the students - thus improving their performance
during interviews, hence improving the overall placements in the ITIs
To provide life skills - which would not only help them in jobs but also in the future
whatever career they may take up
to improve the self-confidence, self-esteem of students, enabling them to set goals
for their life for a positive career movement
