National Action Plan for Skill Development of Persons with Disabilities

Vocational/skill training (both short-term and long-term) is provided through a network of skill training partners. These partners include the government, the public sector, training institutions such as VRCs, private training institutions, and non-governmental organizations.

A cluster delivers partners' training nationwide, known for its successful track record in providing skill training with high employability rates.

A dedicated cross-cutting Sector Skill Council for PwDs (SCPwD) has been established under the Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship (MSDE) in collaboration with the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) and the private sector.

Additionally, mentorship projects to promote self-employment among PwDs are developed by DEPwD in collaboration with industrial confederations, sector-wise associations, domain experts, and other relevant organizations. These mentorship opportunities are tailored to address disability-specific needs.
