Under its ‘School Project’, SkillEd India has set up KED labs in government schools in various districts of Haryana. The Training and Curriculum teams at SkillEd India visit these schools regularly to interact with the teachers and students, to monitor the delivery and impact of the project and to conduct workshops and trainings to ensure smooth delivery of the digital vocational curriculum.
These workshops and trainings are devised for teachers and students from grades 9-12 from the vocational sectors of Retail, Beauty & Wellness and IT & ITeS, depending on the sectors being taught in the schools. The school authorities and the respective vocational teachers are informed through emails or phone calls in advance about the team’s visit and plan.
