TRAINING CENTRE ESTABLISHMENT COMPETITION

Financial Support to Local Entrepreneurs Intending to Set Up Advanced Training Centres in Meghalaya

Training and Capacity Building is a core component for every entrepreneur to build the necessary skills across technical and business aspects to build a sustainable and successful enterprise. At this point in time, the availability of high-quality training facilities in Meghalaya is very limited and in certain sectors non-existent. For high-quality advanced training in most sectors, entrepreneurs have to travel long distances and spend significant amounts of money. Innovation-based training is important for entrepreneurs to capture new markets and be one step ahead of the competition

PRIME intends to support local Entrepreneurs from Meghalaya financially to set up training facilities in the state for conducting entrepreneurship-related and innovation-based training and capacity building in Meghalaya. The awarding will be through a competition for the best proposals.
