KEY POINTS:

This DSEU programme to increase the skills of construction workers, in collaboration with Simplex, NAREDCO, and India Vision Foundation, is particularly unique. Workers will upskill as part of this 15-day special training programme, which will increase their salaries in the future.
This will contribute to an increase in worker salary of up to Rs 8,000. Under this scheme, the government wants to train 2 lakh workers in one year.
These skilled personnel will also be advantageous to construction enterprises.
The Delhi Skill and Entrepreneurship University now operates training centres in 3 locations, and more centres will be added soon. At each of these centres, excellent training spaces have also been created for the staff.
The program’s goal is to offer over 2 lakh registered construction workers on-the-job skill development training in industry demand-driven job roles in the construction sector each year.
As part of the initiative, employees will receive 120 hours (15 days) of training at their places of employment.
