Capacity Building
Capacity building programme for enterprises has been designed such that they address the requirement of various categories. The training content has modules on various business management aspects such as commodity procurement, category management, and sales promotion. Capacity building is done at various levels- skill enhancement, business management, accounting, attitudinal change and motivation, etc. This trend is expected to continue wherein a team of category evangelists would provide critical support to the activity groups for leveraging on their new capacities to manipulate the product value chains more effectively.
The skill training programme addresses the specific skill development needs of the activity groups. For this, collaborations are established with major technology solution providers in different categories. A framework for the capacity building programme is shown below.
