Empower Pragati was amongst the first set of companies to become funded partners of NSDC (National Skill Development Corporation) in 2010. Our plan to impact the lives of lacs of poor youth over the next few years by providing them skills, employment and livelihood is on track. In the last 10 years we have trained over 4.5 lacs youth in both formal and informal sectors. Along with implementing large scale government projects like PMKVY/PMKK, DDUGKY, NSQF etc., we also help corporates to strategise and execute their CSR initiatives. We have taken up CSR projects for companies like Aircel, Pernod Ricard, Interglobe Technologies, Castrol, etc. We work with vulnerable youth, women, juvenile delinquents, specially-abled, school/ college drop-outs in both rural and urban India. We believe that scale with sustainability is important to make any visible impact on the lives of the numerous unemployed and underprivileged youth in our country.
