TNSDC

Tamil Nadu Skill Development Corporation (TNSDC) was formed with an objective to provide demand-based and industry-relevant skills to the youth to enhance their employability and transform the State into the skill hub of India.

TNSDC is the Nodal Agency for the skill development related activities in the State and it aims to converge the activities of various stakeholders including industries, industrial associations, training partners, sector skill councils, assessment agencies apart from various other State and Central Government bodies. TNSDC strives to ensure placement oriented quality skill training by empanelling private and Government training partners.

In order to have uniform curriculum standards throughout the State and the country, TNSDC strictly adheres to the National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF) approved job roles and other standard parameters like course duration, quality standards, assessment methodology and payment milestones based on common norms approved by Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, Government of India. The Qualification Packs(QP) notified by National Skill Development Corporation(NSDC) are followed for imparting training programs with a focus on ensuring a minimum 70 percent placement for all successfully trained and certified candidates.

In order to ensure the quality of training programmes, third-party independent assessment, as well as certification, is being done by State Council of Vocational Training (SCVT) and the concerned Sector Skill Council (SSC). This paves way for a fair and unbiased assessment and certification process.

On completion of training, successful candidates are part of the TN Skill Registry which will be the state repository of skilled candidates and accessible to the private employers who have registered in the TN Private Job Portal. This will ensure the trainees who have undergone short term skill training are immediately employed.
