In compliance with a specific provision in the National Policy for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship 2015, Skill Council for Persons with Disability (SCPwD) was incepted as a National Body in October 2015 to fulfil the mission of mainstreaming ‘Persons with Disability’(PwD) through skill training to enable them to earn a livelihood and lead a life of dignity in the mainstream society and in turn contribute to growing economy of the country.
Skill training is imparted at accredited training centres through trained and certified trainers. Trainers are trained on the NSQC approved job roles aligned for a specific disability. Trainers are also certified on disability orientation and sensitization.
‘Expository’ contains detailed information on diverse training needs for different types of disability. It has description of training tools, its utility and expected learning outcome through its application. These Training Tools are also known as Assistive Tools/ Appliances/ Software. Expository is utilized to develop training methodology which enables successful skilling of Persons with Disability (PwD) on the National Occupational Standards (NOS) in a manner that the learning outcomes from the QP remain the same. Expository thus assists the Trainer to train a PwD Trainee without the disability becoming a restraining factor in his/ her learning. Similarly, it assists the Assessors to adopt appropriate assessment methodology without changing the assessment criteria in the QP
