The Skill Development Cell is organizing an Entrepreneurship Skill Development in Collaboration with the Nagaland Tool Room and Training Centre from 19 Feb -26 Feb 2025 at Baptist College, Sechü Campus
Entrepreneurship Skill Development Program, organised by Skill Development Cell, Baptist College.
The Skill Development Cell organized a one-week Entrepreneurship Skill Development Programme at Baptist College, Sechü Campus, in collaboration with the Nagaland Tool Room and Training Centre. The programme was divided into two focused modules- House Wiring and Maintenance and Food Processing with fifty students and six faculty members participated, three of whom were assigned the modules. In the House Wiring and Maintenance module, the training was split between theoretical sessions and hands-on practical exercises. The theory classes introduced essential electrical wiring principles, emphasizing how busbars distribute incoming power across various circuits in a distribution board. Participants learned about the role of the isolator in disconnecting power for safety, the function of the Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) in detecting current imbalances, and the importance of Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs) in protecting individual circuits from overloads. The practical sessions reinforced these concepts by demonstrating proper installation techniques for components such as distribution boards, MCBs, RCCBs, wiring for live and neutral lines, and even referenced legacy systems like Kit Kat fuses, thereby providing a comprehensive understanding of modern electrical installations.
In the Food Processing module, the programme was developed in an integrated approach to both theory and practice. Participants were introduced to the fundamentals of food processing through hands-on training that covered the preparation of a variety of culinary items, including cakes,juices, pickles, and sinju. This module not only highlighted the science behind food preservation and flavour balance but also provided practical experience in managing recipes and processing techniques. The interactive sessions encouraged participants to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios, bridging the gap between classroom instruction and practical application.
The programme successfully merged academic learning with practical skill development. The detailed sessions in the House Wiring and Maintenance module deepened participants’ understanding of electrical safety and efficient power distribution, while the Food Processing module equipped them with essential culinary and preservation techniques. Feedback from the participants indicated that the hands-on approach in both modules significantly enhanced their technical skills and confidence, setting a solid foundation for future professional endeavours. This initiative by the Skill Development Cell not only enriched the participants’ knowledge but also established a model for future training programmes aimed at fostering practical, industry-ready competencies.
