Skill India’s first batch of technical interns reaches Japan

New Delhi, July 20 (UNI) Skill India’s first batch of 12 technical interns reached Japan on Tuesday.
The training and orientation of interns has been organised under the Memorandum of Cooperation (MoC) on Technical Intern Training Program (TITP) between the Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship (MSDE), and the Government of Japan, in October 2017.
The young interns, between the ages of 23 and 26 years, hailing from rural parts of Southern Tamil Nadu, belong to economically weaker sections of the society. They are academically qualified from polytechnics and industrial institutes in the state, an official statement said here.
The interns will be placed at Maxell Ltd., the consumer electronic company, at its Ono-Shi and Hyogo prefecture plants in Japan, where they will work for a span of 3-years and can avail an option of a 2-year extension. They will draw an average monthly salary of Rs.65,000.

Signifying exceptional bilateral cooperation between the two countries, especially in the field of skill development, the training and departure of the first batch of 12 interns has been accomplished within nine months of the signing of the MoC. TITP is monitored by National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC), under the aegis of MSDE.
Under the TITP, the candidates received skill training and were oriented in Japanese language, culture, customs and manners. The pre-departure training was conducted by native Japanese teachers specifically engaged for this purpose at the Chennai facility of the Sending Organisation - Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) in collaboration with Nihon Technology Private Limited (NTPL).
In his congratulatory remarks, Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE) Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said, “This manpower deployment in Japan is a significant milestone and would go a long way in contributing towards Prime Minister’s vision of making India the Skill Capital of the World.”

Congratulating the first batch of interns, NSDC MD & CEO Manish Kumar noted that the global supply-demand dynamics in skilled manpower offered opportunities like this for India to reap its demographic dividend.
