ITEES is a globally recognised leader in vocational education and technical training, playing a crucial role in Singapore’s workforce development strategy. The Odisha government had signed a MoU with it in November 2017. “As part of the collaboration, the Singapore based agency shares its experiences in technical and vocational training and provide consultancy support to the Odisha Skill Development Authority (OSDA), state’s nodal agency for skill development.”

According to sources, the high-level delegation from the state held discussions on how Odisha was emerging as the Skill Capital of India through global-standard initiatives, “Skilled in Odisha” setting benchmarks in national skill development programmes, and the focus on empowering youth of the state for global industrial opportunities.

They also touched upon plans to expand World Skill Centre and establish new training hubs.

Invitation was also extended to ITEES for the investors summit scheduled for January 28-29 in Bhubaneswar, sources added.

The CM will engage in one-on-one meetings with investors and industry associations to discuss potential collaborations. The delegation will also be meeting the Odia diaspora in Singapore to seek their inputs and support to take Odisha to the next level on the last two days of the visit.
