Quivan is actively involved in the School Project under the CSS-VHSE (Centrally Sponsored Scheme for Vocationalization of Higher Secondary Education) in West Bengal, a government-sponsored initiative aimed at enhancing the vocational skills of students in higher secondary schools. This project focuses on equipping students with technical skills in plumbing and construction, preparing them for meaningful careers in these crucial sectors. By providing hands-on training and theoretical knowledge, Quivan plays a key role in ensuring that students are well-prepared to enter the workforce with confidence and competence.
The primary objectives of the School Project in West Bengal include:
The project aims to impart essential technical skills in plumbing and construction to students across 80 schools in different districts of West Bengal. These skills are critical for the infrastructure development sector, which is a major employment generator in the state. By focusing on practical training, the project ensures that students gain hands-on experience in tasks such as pipe fitting, water supply system installation, masonry, and basic construction techniques.
One of the key goals of the project is to enhance the employability of students by providing them with industry-relevant skills. The vocational training is designed to meet the current demands of the job market, ensuring that students are equipped with the competencies required by employers in the plumbing and construction industries.
The project supports the broader goal of vocationalizing higher secondary education in West Bengal. By integrating vocational courses into the school curriculum, the project promotes the importance of vocational education as a viable and respected pathway to employment and career development.
The implementation of the School Project involves a collaborative approach, with Quivan working closely with educational institutions, government bodies, and industry partners. The project is structured to provide students with both theoretical knowledge and practical training in plumbing and construction skills. Key strategies include:
The curriculum for the vocational courses is designed to be industry-relevant and comprehensive, covering all essential aspects of plumbing and construction. It includes modules on safety practices, tool usage, material handling, and project management, ensuring that students receive a well-rounded education.
Practical training is a core component of the project. Quivan ensures that students have access to fully equipped workshops and training centers where they can practice their skills under the guidance of experienced instructors. This hands-on experience is crucial for building the confidence and competence needed to perform tasks in real-world settings.
To enhance the relevance of the training, Quivan collaborates with industry partners who provide insights into current industry practices and trends. These partnerships also offer opportunities for students to participate in internships, apprenticeships, and on-the-job training, further enhancing their employability.
The project includes a robust monitoring and evaluation framework to assess the progress of students and the effectiveness of the training program. Regular assessments, feedback sessions, and evaluations are conducted to ensure that the training meets the desired standards and outcomes.
The School Project in West Bengal has a significant impact on the students and the broader community. Some of the key benefits include:
Students gain valuable technical skills in plumbing and construction, which are highly sought after in the job market. These skills provide them with a competitive edge and open up a range of employment opportunities in the construction and infrastructure sectors.
Upon completion of the training, students are well-prepared to pursue careers in plumbing, construction, and related fields. The project enhances their employability, allowing them to secure jobs or even start their own businesses in these trades.
By equipping students with marketable skills, the project contributes to the economic empowerment of individuals and communities. Graduates of the program are able to earn a livelihood, support their families, and contribute to the economic development of their localities.
