Post-Training Entrepreneurship & Market Support
From Skills to Enterprise – Supporting the Journey toward Self-Reliance
At Upkar Trust, we believe that the true value of skill development is realized when trainees are able to apply their knowledge and skills to pursue self-employment, micro-enterprise, or other sustainable livelihood opportunities.
