The Shrimad Rajchandra Skill Development Centre, set up in partnership with the Gem & Jewellery Skill Council of India (GJSCI) in September 2022, is helping tribal youth in Dharampur, Valsad, in southern Gujarat build sustainable careers in the gem and jewellery sector.<\/p>\n
The centre offers training in jewellery CAD design, a key skill in modern jewellery manufacturing. Supported by CSR contributions from SEEPZ-based jewellery companies, the courses follow the National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF) and are conducted by certified trainers using advanced infrastructure.<\/p>\n
Since its launch, the centre has trained 170 candidates across eight batches, achieving a placement rate of over 65%. Graduates have joined reputed jewellery units in Gujarat and Maharashtra, while others have started small enterprises locally.<\/p>\n
