Training Structure
Each training programme is generally conducted in three progressive phases:
Phase I – Foundation Level
Participants receive basic theoretical knowledge, introductory practical training, safety awareness, and essential operational skills related to the selected course.
Phase II – Skill Development Level
This phase focuses on advanced practical training, product development, quality improvement, and hands-on skill enhancement.
Phase III – Entrepreneurship & Professional Development
Participants are introduced to entrepreneurship, business planning, product costing, quality standards, packaging, branding, customer service, basic marketing, and business management concepts.
