Dear Well Wishers

We wish you and your family a Happy New Year 2020

Our hearty gratitude for your continued support in our endeavor of empowering the educational community.  During the calendar year 2019 we continued to engage college students through various skill training programs leading to Employment. We also had training programs made for high school children.  

  • During the year 301 students were trained through 6 Residential Bridge camps till December, 2019 and 4 more are planned for the 4th quarter of the academic year 2019-20. 
  • Abdul Kalam Susandhi Fellowship program is a unique program designed to impart technical skills along with exemplary behavioral skills. This is a 8 months residential training program where the students are trained on various high tech computer skill and placed for a 12 months industrial training which leads to their employment with the same employer. 22 New students joined our program in 2019 and 72 students are undergoing industrial training. All previous batch students are successfully placed for industrial training in different companies.
  • Tutoring in Government Schools: This program is a joint venture between Vidya Pohsak and eVidyaloka. The program addresses shortage of teachers and poor quality of teaching in rural schools. Trained volunteer teachers, based across the world deliver online interactive sessions through skype in vernacular language to the children studying in 5th to 7th class. This program is being run in 20 villages of Dharwad block and 2500 children are being benefitted
  • Vidya Poshak got assodiated with NIIT Foundation to provide various computer skill training program for rural students. The inagural batch started in Dharwad and Sirsi where the students are trained on Advanced Excel & Word.
