Bridging Classroom Learning with Industry Experience!

Strengthening vocational education begins with empowering teachers through real-world industry exposure and practical learning.

The Furniture & Fittings Skill Council (FFSC), through its I.EVO × FFSC Centre of Excellence, Udaipur, supported the Capacity Building Programme for Teachers on Vocational Education at the Middle Stage (Grades 6–8), organised by PSS Central Institute of Vocational Education, National Council of Educational Research and Training ( NCERT ).

As part of the initiative, Team FFSC facilitated two key engagements:

28 October: A two-hour knowledge-sharing session connecting vocational education with furniture and interiors industry practices.

29 October: A hands-on workshop and industry visit, providing participating teachers with practical exposure to industry processes, tools, techniques and real-world working environments.

The programme supported the objectives of Kaushal Bodh and 10 Bagless Days, aligned with NEP 2020 and NCF-SE 2023.

Through its growing network of FFSC Centres of Excellence and Skill Academies, FFSC continues to create opportunities for industry exposure, experiential learning, technical training and capacity building for students, teachers and industry professionals.
