Kaushal Vikas Yojana

Uttar Pradesh
Quick Summary: Kaushal Vikas Yojana helps registered construction workers and their dependents get formal skill training by reimbursing institute fees, textbooks and stationery. Registered workers who train themselves are also compensated at the unskilled minimum wage.

About Kaushal Vikas Yojana

Construction workers registered with the Board often lack the skills that formal training brings, and this scheme sets out to close that gap by opening up training for competency building and technical upgrading. At present, these workers learn only on the job, since institutional limitations keep them away from formal technical courses, and as a result they struggle to earn fair wages and reach better services. Because money is frequently what stops workers and their families from taking up formal training, the scheme reimburses the cost of training as well as the wages lost during it. Closing this financial gap allows people to raise their skill levels and improve their career prospects.
