He also visited the Learning Resource Centre and interacted with students undergoing industry-focused training. Impressed by the Centre’s performance, Singh said, “WSC is a model for the future of vocational training in India.
While many states have skill centres, completing six successful batches with a 99 per cent placement rate is remarkable.
The Centre is not just skilling youth but also upskilling trainers, setting new standards in quality.” He further noted the WSC’s importance in preparing a job-ready workforce aligned with evolving industry needs.
