We have set ourselves the goal of introducing and implementing a new vocational training system in India. The basis for this is the high-quality and proven model of dual vocational training in Switzerland. With the support of competent Swiss experts and trainers, who also work locally, the first practice-oriented training programs are being successfully implemented.

Dual vocational training system

As Switzerland’s dual system has shown over more than 150 years of history, it can train highly qualified and flexibly deployable professionals and give trainees a start in the professional world on which to build a career. Experienced specialists are in high demand and have a lasting impact on the economy.
