240 ITI students participate in skill training initiative for job opportunities abroad

The Andhra Pradesh State Skill Development Corporation (APSSDC), in collaboration with Project Sarva Sethu, has launched a virtual skill training initiative to prepare ITI (Industrial Training Institute) students for employment opportunities in Germany.

The programme was inaugurated by G. Ganesh Kumar, APSSDC Managing Director on Monday. Mr. Ganesh Kumar stressed the importance of learning German as a gateway to global careers and acknowledged the initial challenges of language acquisition, but assured students of full support from expert trainers.

He also appreciated the involvement of Telugu-speaking professionals in Germany, who will mentor students as they adapt to international environments.

More than 240 students from 14 ITI colleges participated in the first session titled ‘Deutsch Level A1 – Alphabets and Pronunciation’, on Monday. Project Sarva Sethu, founded by Rahul Kumar, focuses on bridging gaps between skills, cultures, and global opportunities.

Through language and cultural training, the initiative empowers India’s skilled and semi-skilled workforce to succeed internationally, particularly in Germany. “Our mission is to empower India’s workforce through tailored language and cultural training, ensuring participants are fully equipped to thrive globally,” said Mr. Rahul Kumar.
