In her opening remarks, Director of Higher and Technical Education, HDB Sangma, said that the programme aims to provide a platform for the youth to enhance their skill set and in turn enable them to obtain opportunities for the purposes of employability in the BFSI sector.
It may be noted that the Education department had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the NSE on November 28 last year to empower state’s youths.
The MoU was signed in the presence of Chief Minister Conrad Sangma, Education Minister Rakkam Sangma, and Chief Secretary DP Wahlang besides other state government officials.
This collaboration aims to provide a platform for skill development in the BFSI sector. The programme focuses on facilitating investor awareness and offering training to increase awareness of the securities market. The objective is to enhance the competence of students, beneficiaries, and practitioners across the state.
