Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE) is implementing its flagship Scheme Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY) since 2015. Under PMKVY, skill training is imparted through Short Term Training (STT) and Re-skilling and Up-skilling through Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) to youth across the country. The current version of PMKVY i.e. PMKVY 4.0 which is being implemented from the FY 2022-23, focuses on delivery of skill training in a market-oriented and demand driven manner by making the existing skilling ecosystem more flexible, swift, and geared to meet the emerging demand along with emphasis on improving the employability of candidates.
The year-wise and component-wise details of total number of candidates trained, assessed, certified and reported placed under the PMKVY during the last five years are given at Annexure I.
Under PMKVY, placements were tracked in the Short-Term Training (STT) component in the first three versions of the Scheme which is PMKVY 1.0, PMKVY 2.0 and PMKVY 3.0 implemented from FY 2015-16 to FY 2021-22. Under PMKVY 4.0 which is under implementation since FY 2022-23, the focus is to empower trained candidates to choose their varied career path and they are suitably oriented for the same through On-Job Training (OJT) embedded industry relevant skill courses.
During the FY 2015-16 to FY 2021-22, a total of 23,99,524 candidates have been reported placed under PMKVY.
PMKVY 4.0 is a demand-driven scheme wherein training in various job roles is undertaken based on proposals submitted by implementing entities. While examining such proposals, allocation of targets to oversubscribed job roles is avoided in order to prevent concentration of training in a limited number of job roles.
Under PMKVY 4.0, for ensuring long term employment the focus is to empower our trained candidates to choose their varied career path and they are suitably oriented for the same through On-Job Training (OJT) embedded industry relevant skill courses. Additionally, following steps have been taken to enhance employability of candidates under PMKVY 4.0:
