“These Karnataka German Technical Training Institutes provide excellent quality training to 4000 applicants a year.
The short-term and long-term training will enable unemployed young women, especially those from all communities, including Scheduled Castes and Tribes, Backward Classes candidates, Minorities and Women, to pursue their lives independently. Young people must embrace technology and adapt to today’s technological age. There are ample opportunities for specialist candidates to become self-sufficient. In addition, the center will provide high quality training. This should be put to good use,” he said.
