The Rural Development and Self Employment Training (RUDSET) Institute will conduct free training in poultry farming and other skills for rural unemployed youth in Karnataka from August 17. The 12-day poultry farming course is among six programmes that also include embroidery, sheep and goat farming, CCTV installation, tailoring and mushroom cultivation.
Applicants must be aged 18 to 50, literate in Kannada and have an Aadhaar card. Preference goes to rural candidates holding BPL cards. The institute is run jointly with the Sri Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara Educational Trust and Canara Bank. Interested persons can call the numbers provided in the release.
Free skill training sounds good, but the real test is whether it leads to jobs or self-employment. Many such programmes churn out certificates without market linkages. The RUDSET model has a longer track record, yet numbers on placement or income uplift are rarely shared. A pointed question: what percentage of past trainees now earn a sustainable livelihood from the skills they learned? That data would settle the scepticism.
