The Indian Institute of Technology (Indian School of Mines) Dhanbad has launched a capacity-building program aimed at enhancing IT skills among tribal students in Jharkhand. This initiative, supported by the Ministry of Tribal Affairs, runs from April 8 to 10 and involves students from Eklavya Model Residential Schools (EMRS), which provide quality education to Scheduled Tribe students in remote areas. The program combines theoretical assessments with hands-on training, focusing on bridging the digital divide and making students future-ready. Prof Rashmi Singh, who leads the initiative, stated that the curriculum is designed to build confidence in technology use and includes modules on computer fundamentals, tally, and Python programming, along with advanced training in MS Access and accounting tools. The program reflects IIT Dhanbad's commitment to inclusive growth through education, equipping tribal youth with essential skills for the digital economy.
