About DSDC

Delhi Skill Development Centre (DSDC) is an Assessment Centre partner for DGE & T Under MSDE (Ministry OF Skill Development and Entrepreneurship) Govt. Of India. DSDC has been established with a primary objective to enhance the skills of the youth of India at Affordable Fee to meet the growing demands of modern industrialization.

Even though the central and state Governments have made considerable effort to enhance the Skill of the Youth, there Continues to be a huge gap between the demand and supply of Skilled Workforce. This is magnified by the fact that with a population of over a billion people and majority in the average age of 25 years, nearly 300 million are underemployed or unemployed. On the other side industry is in acute shortage of skilled labor. This clearly highlights that most of our population is under skilled and therefore unemployable.

About DGE & T and Skill India Mission

Skill India is an initiative of the Government of India which has been launched to empower the youth of the country with skill sets which make them more employable and more productive in their work environment. Our National Skill Mission is chaired by the Hon’ble Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi himself.

India is a country today with 65% of its youth in the working age group. If ever there is a way to reap this demographic advantage, it has to be through skill development of the youth so that they add not only to their personal growth, but to the country’s economic growth as well.

Skill India offers courses across 40 sectors in the country which are aligned to the standards recognised by both, the industry and the government under the National Skill Qualification Framework. The courses help a person focus on practical delivery of work and help him enhance his technical expertise so that he is ready for day one of his job and companies don’t have to invest into training him for his job profile.

The candidates are also linked to the MUDRAscheme of the government to get assistance in initial business funding. The Directorate General of Training (DGT) in Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship is the apex organization for development and coordination at National level for the programmes relating to vocational training including Women’s Vocational Training. Industrial Training Institutes are under the administrative and financial control of State Governments or Union Territory Administrations.

Development of these programmes at national level, particularly in the area concerning common policies, common standards and procedures, training of instructors and trade testing are the responsibility of the DGT.
