Speaking at the workshop organised on imparting skills to the youth in the State at the SEEDAP office here, Deepak Reddy said the organisation has imparted training to 1.36 lakh youth and provided jobs to 1.04 lakh in the State.
He said the SEEDAP has set the target of creating one lakh jobs a year and produce entrepreneurs in the State. He said the SEEDAP has drawn plans to impart 12 types of training in the State and AP will be transformed as the one stop centre for skill development and skilled professionals in the country.
He said a comprehensive plan will be drawn for creation of jobs in association with sector skill councils, industries and training centres and the plan will be submitted to the government.
He said plans are afoot to stop migration of youth from rural areas to the urban areas by forming Centres of Excellence and the SEEDAP is encouraging formation of new industrial clusters.
