The Olgapuri Vocational School offers premium quality training program, with professional trainers, advanced workshops, and full compliance to the standard curriculum.
There is added value to the course, as we offer a more comprehensive set of activities by including career counseling, life skills, job search skills, basic IT skills and job placement support.
Production and real project-based training design applied at the School helps to double the advantage, as it consolidates trainees’ skills and is also a good income source for the school.
The training course encompasses 10 weeks of in-house training at selected satellite centre or at the Olgapuri Vocational School, and 2 to 4 weeks (depending upon the Course 390 hours/550 hours) of On-the-Job Training at various business houses and manufacturing companies. However, for the Industrial Tailoring, the model is slightly different. The trainees required to complete 3 months training at OVS and 3 months of OJT in Garment Company followed by employment in same company.
Since the establishment of the vocational school in 2017, almost 2800 youths (800 in satellite model) have received the training, with an employment rate of 82% within 3 months of training completion. However, among them 10% are female participants in engineering trades and 100% of female participants in Industrial Tailoring.
Likewise, more than 3500 youths from various parts of Nepal received career orientation prior to the training. Our team holds career orientation programs for the youths in different parts of Nepal in co-ordination with the local governments and NGO’s. This helps us to reach out to the most marginalized communities in terms of geography and socio-economic conditions.
