30-day training programme for SC graduates

Special Correspondent
MADURAI: In a bid to rope in young and educated graduates/diploma holders mainly from Scheduled Castes and others, the State-run Entrepreneurship Development Institute (EDI) has planned to impart a month-long training-cum-exposure on entrepreneurship programme.

Addressing members of the SC/ST Welfare Committee, Collector C. Kamaraj said here on Wednesday that the EDI had formed a team of eminent industrialists and professors like C. K. Ranganathan, R. Ramaraj, P.K. Mohapatra, Prof. Jhunjhunwala, Fr. Christie, Dr. Jayashree Suresh among others to design a special month-long programme.

Pilot programme

A pilot programme was attended by over 50 students at IIT Madras last year.

According to the organisers, the programme was a success as five of the 12 teams received funding commitments from visiting entrepreneurs.

Keeping this in mind, the EDI had proposed to launch a similar training programme for about 200 graduates (including 140 from SC/ST category ) each in Chennai, Madurai, Tiruchi, Coimbatore and Tirunelveli.

While the programme fee is Rs 12,500, it is being offered at 50 per cent discount to BC/MBC and free to SC/ST diploma/graduates below 30 years of age. The programme is scheduled to commence on March 1 at Mannar Thirumalai Naicker College here. For more details, aspirants can contact consultant Prathap Sethu on 98421-65063.

Presentation

According to Mr. Kamaraj, interested students can submit applications at the above centre on February 20 between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m.

An entrance test would be conducted and selected candidates can attend the training programme from March 1.

Mr. Sethu said that the one-month programme would include training on entrepreneurship skills, risk-taking, leadership skills, man management, resource management, product survey, market research, marketing strategy and selling techniques, business plan case study, and industrial visits.

Confidence-building

In a nutshell, he said, the training programme would equip a candidate from the most suppressed class in the society with much-needed confidence to be an entrepreneur with adequate technical and other expertise.
