RNTU signs MoU with FICSI to establish MP's first COE
Mumbai, Apr 16 (IBNS): Bhopal-based Rabindranath Tagore University (RNTU) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Food Industry Capacity and Skill Initiative (FICSI) to establish Madhya Pradesh’s first Centre of Excellence (COE) in Food Processing at the University.
The Centre will aim to train manpower for MSMEs and startups in various subsectors of food processing, along with building entrepreneurial capabilities in the State.
Under the partnership, RNTU will impart training in Food Processing based on FICSI’s Qualification Pack (QP) as the training curriculum for the students. FICSI will conduct an assessment and provide certification to the trained students.
Rabindranath Tagore University (RNTU), formerly known as AISECT University, was established in Bhopal by the AISECT Group of Universities in 2012 as India’s first Skills University. It is the country’s first university to inculcate compulsory skills development courses across all its formal degree programs.
All the students at the University have to learn at least one skill every semester so that by the time they graduate they have 5-6 skills handy. A time-tested practice of the University, it has been successful in significantly raising the employability levels of the students.
