Training On “PCB DESIGN”

Youth employment issues are a major concern for many countries because they have negative effects on the welfare of young people, and may also adversely affect economic performance and social stability. The reasons for higher youth-to-adult unemployment rates include labour demand and supply factors, as well as constraints in the labour and credit markets. Their relative importance in a dynamic growth context varies across countries. Recognizing these differences is important for governments in designing youth employment programs tailored to the most affected youth groups, and to incorporating in program design specific interventions to address the underlying causes of youth unemployment and underemployment. District industries centre, govt of Kerala in association with KMEA Engineering College organised a 20 day training program on ‘PCB Design’ under the skill development scheme for entrepreneurship.
