Livelihood & Skilling

Building Self-Reliance through Job-Oriented Skills

The challenge

  • Unemployment and underemployment remain major challenges in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, especially among rural youth, women, and tribal communities.

  • Nearly 55% of the rural workforce is engaged in informal labour, often with low wages, job insecurity, and no access to social protection.

  • Additionally, over 70% of youth lack formal vocational training, leaving them unprepared for skilled jobs in an evolving economy.

  • With limited access to industry-relevant skills, entrepreneurship support, and career-linked training, many individuals remain trapped in cycles of economic dependence.

Our approach

  • Jesuit Province Society bridges this gap through futuristic, industry-oriented employability training, providing formal vocational courses, entrepreneurship programmes, and leadership development initiatives.

  • Our Skill Development Centres and Industrial Schools offer diploma courses in carpentry, computer applications, electrical maintenance, refrigeration and air-conditioning, welding, and vehicle mechanics for men, while women receive training in tailoring, small-scale industries, and digital skills.

  • All courses integrate life skills and leadership training, ensuring individuals not only find employment but also gain the confidence to achieve financial independence and build self-sufficient futures.
