The National Small Industries Corporation Limited (NSIC), under the Ministry of MSME, today signed two Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) to enhance the skills of Odisha youths.
The first MoU was signed between the Rourkela Steel Plant and National Scheduled Tribe Finance Development Corporation. As per the agreement, a livelihood Business Incubator will be set up at Rourkela for transforming the tribal youth from "unemployed" to "self-employed" in different trades.
This will create more job opportunity for the youths, particularly in SC and ST communities in Odisha, said Oram while praising the initiative by the NSIC.
NSIC also signed an MoU with SAP for skilling youth on enterprise software.
As part of the MoU, SAP India will leverage the well established network of NSIC Technical Service Centres, to create future ready workplace through training on "Business One" software.
