The 29th centre of ATDC is inaugurated in the State of Orissa ON 24.07.2007. Indeed the last few years, ATDC is streamlining its activities in tune with its objectives. From an initial strength of a mere 195 students training in 1996, number of students passing out last year has risen to 7500.
Overall more than 23000 students have been trained in different centres of the ATDC, since its inception and around 5500 students are now undergoing training in different courses.
The students trained at various centres of ATDCs are suitably employed in the garment industry and we are proposing to set up a total of 50 ATDC centres by December 2007 and to train a minimum of 25000 students per year.
As part of institutional social responsibility and in specific development of the weaker section of the society and to provide them opportunities for a better livelihood, in collaboration with the National Backward Classes Finance & Development Corporation (NBCFDC) and National Scheduled Castes Finance & Development Corporation (NBCFDC), New Delhi, ATDC has tied up to impart training to OBC/SC candidates by signing MOU's.
A special fee concession also offered by the ATDC to candidates sponsored by various Govt.. Departments / Welfare organizations under Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment, Govt of India like National Minorities Development & Finance Corporation, National Handicapped Finance & Development Corporation, National Safai Karamchari Finance & Development Corporation etc.
So far over 5000 students belonging to weaker section of the society (BPL) especially women have been trained with the help of various Central / State Welfare Organizations and all of them suitably employed in garment industry. Various initiatives are on the anvil for the development of women, SC, ST & OBC living Below Poverty Line.
In fact, ATDC provides 100% placement for the students passing out from ATDC centres. Various industries / export houses situated in all over the country recruit our students.
Indeed there is a huge demand for skilled human resources in the Apparel Industry, as the textile sector would generate employment opportunities for 17.35 million work force of which 5.2 million will be skilled and the textile sector is expected to attract an investment of 1,50,600 Crore by the end of 11th Five year plan. Indeed the growth of the industry has now accelerated to 10% per annum and it is expected to rise to 16% in coming years.
