NGO to Offer Vocational Training to 25,000 Youth Annually

Unnati Foundation, a non-profit organization that provides students from underprivileged backgrounds with vocational training, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Government of Gujarat to implement its UNXT program across government colleges in the state. Through this MoU, Unnati’s program will be conducted in 200 government and industrial training institutes (ITIs) across Gujarat, with an expected reach of 25,000 youth in the first phase. Over the three-year period of the MoU, the program aims to train 75,000 final year graduation students.

Unnati’s UNXT program is a 200-hour employment course that focuses on real world skills such as communication, workplace readiness and etiquettes, values and life skills. Under the agreement, Unnati Foundation will conduct a 90-hour offline training module combined with a 90-hour online Learning Management System (LMS) program. The training will focus on English communication, life skills, values, and interview preparation. Each participant will also undergo a psychometric analysis, resulting in a detailed report that provides insight into their aptitude and career readiness. The program is open to students from all disciplines, including arts, commerce, science, and engineering.

In addition to this, to provide employment linkage, student data will be integrated into Unnati’s Udhyogam platform, a dedicated job portal designed for freshers. The platform allows recruiters to access profiles based on pin codes, academic backgrounds, and includes unique video resumes to enable better assessment and engagement.

Commenting on the MoU, Dr Ramesh Swamy, Director, Unnati Foundation, said, “ Our aim through this partnership is to drive grassroots-level change by ensuring that fresh graduates are skilled and ready to meet the demands of the employment world. This initiative is a significant step towards bridging the employability gap among youth, particularly those from rural and underrepresented communities. We look forward to working closely with colleges across Gujarat to equip final-year students with essential life skills and long-term career opportunities”
