ABOUT STRIVE

Kanara Industries Association(KIA) has been chosen as one of three Industrial Clusters (IC) for STRIVE (Skills Strengthening for Industrial Value Enhancement) in Karnataka.

STRIVE is a World Bank funded project under which KIA-IC would train apprentices and place youth in various Industries in Dakshina Kannada.

Subsequently they are offered placement at the member establishment if found suitable.

Over 80 Industries under KIA-IC have issued support letters to KIA-IC to place apprentices in their Establishments. Already 48 apprentices are placed in different establishments with a target of training and placing 200 apprentices under this project in one year’s time.
