On August 18, the Yogi Government hosted the Kaushal Samadhan Diwas event at the Uttar Pradesh Skill Development Mission headquarters in Lucknow to address concerns raised by training providers, or training partners. The event saw discussions between mission officials, including Minister of State Kapil Dev Agarwal, Principal Secretary Dr Hari Om, and Mission Director Pulkit Khare, and representatives of training providers.
The primary goal of the Skill Development Mission remains to equip Uttar Pradesh's youth with practical skills for employment and self-reliance, rather than merely increasing the number of trainees. Training providers are essential in implementing government schemes at the grassroots level, and addressing their concerns is crucial.
Irregularities will be dealt with strictly according to the rules, while valid payments and genuine issues of quality training will be resolved promptly. Interactions between training partners will now be held on the first Monday of each month. The mission also agreed to reintroduce the performance guarantee system with a new verification process and consider reducing the guarantee amount for startup training partners.
Discussions also covered accelerating assessments and certification processes, the acceptability of computer training certificates, and incentive mechanisms for trainees' sustained employment. The department emphasized that quality remains the top priority, and the true purpose of the Skill Development Mission is to provide certified and employment-oriented skills to the youth of Uttar Pradesh.
