Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY) is the flagship scheme of the Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship (MSDE). It is implemented by National Skills Development Corporation (NSDC) under the guidance of the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE). With a vision of a ‘’Skilled India’’, MSDE aims to skill India on a large scale with speed and high standards.
Under PMKVY, special focus is given to RPL by recognizing prior competencies of the assessed candidates and provides a certificate and monetary reward on successful completion of assessments. RPL is an important step towards getting formal acceptance and respect for informally acquired knowledge and skills.
Today the 31st October 2018, the formal inauguration of RPL-PMKVY training programme for Mamit District of Mizoram was held in Damparengpui. Altogether 200 candidates are enrolled for RPL training under PMKVY in the job role ‘‘Two Shaft Handloom Weaver’’ for Mamit District.

RPL is a platform to provide recognition to the informal learning or learning through work to get equal acceptance as the formal levels of education. In short, it is a process of assessment of an individual’s prior learning to give due importance to learning as an outcome rather than learning as process. RPL also shows them a path to bridge their current knowledge and skill levels to reach a competency level or go for higher skills for professional growth. Recognition brings respect, increases productivity, creates options for growth through RPL.
Chanu Creations is now marching towards the transformation and reformation of the working condition of the women weavers specially in north-eastern region of India. By giving women skills and new opportunities, we can unlock their full potential and enable every woman to find a new meaningful place in society. It is truly gratifying that the efforts of Chanu Creations bring smiles to thousands of women weavers and moving towards the fruitfulness tomorrow's generation with a new identity.
