A three-month skill development programme, sponsored by the Rural Electrification Corporation ltd. (REC), under its Corporate Social Responsibility initiative was successfully completed at the Center for Research and Industrial Staff Performance (CRISP) here. In the first phase, 350 candidates belonging to the weaker sections of the society were trained in various technical skills and linked to the employment.
Subroto Chatterjee, chief project officer, REC (MP and Chhattisgarh) was present during the last day of the training. Chatterjee distributed the certificates to the participants and wished the candidates for their future endeavors. He appreciated the efforts made by CRISP in successful execution of this programme.
Chief executive officer of CRISP, Mukesh Sharma said that the project was completely residential and candidates from all across Madhya Pradesh participated in it. “ Though a total of 500 candidates were supposed to be trained, only 350 have completed their training and 200 beneficiaries were linked to the employment. Efforts were being taken to link other candidates to the employment,” he added.
Shrikant Bansal, COO, CRISP, in his welcome speech briefed about the activities of CRISP and the project.
Meanwhile, CRISP has proved once again that they remain thought leaders in training and skill development by initiating new courses on social media management. With the increase in digital media penetration and aligning itself with vision of Digital India, CRISP will be starting new courses on social media management. These courses are designed to understand and manage social media effectively to achieve goals.
