Kolkata, June 6 (IBNS): Ashok Leyland, flagship of the Hinduja Group in partnership with JIS Group Educational Initiatives recently inaugurated a Service Training Center in Kolkata and an eight-seater classroom on wheels called “Knowledge on Wheels” (KNOW).

The Kolkata centre is the ninth such Centre in India and second in the eastern part of the country, after Bhubaneshwar.

It is part of Ashok Leyland's  skill development programme under the ‘Skill India’ initiative.

These centres have been entrusted with the responsibility to help the students develop skills related to various aspects of their work.

All personnel are trained as per their respective roles and responsibility, helping them continually improve their skill for higher productivity resulting in better retention and motivation.
 
This fully-equipped, modern Centre will provide comprehensive classroom and hands-on experience to all participants.

The joint service training initiatives include programmes such as Earn and Learn, Join Skill Dev Project, Knowledge on Wheels and Service Samrat.

According to the organisers, any one who has passed class ten can join the skill management classes.

The class fees have been kept on the lower side so that many students can avail the opportunity, the organisers said.

Ashok Leyland provides experienced in-house faculty, experts from the proprietary manufacturers, specialists from Product Development, Quality Control and Field Service departments for handling the training sessions on various topics.

After the completion of the programme, these personnel will be industry-ready with skill-sets that will help them and the industry improve its service quality and reach.
