Safeducate, the education and training arm of supply chain and logistics industry leader Safexpress, has created an innovative model for skilling people, which can be easily and quickly be replicated to any location in India. This community outreach initiative by Safeducate could help the government provide high quality skill training even in the remotest areas of the country. 

Inaugurating the Safeducate Container School, Rajiv Pratap Rudy, Minister of State for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, said, “Safeducate has introduced an innovation, which will revolutionize the way skill training is imparted in the country. By launching India’s first Container School, Safeducate has set an example in the field of skilling. It is difficult to provide training to the youth in the rural areas of the country, where there is minimum availability of infrastructure and resources. By bringing down the cost and effort involved in developing infrastructure to meet education and skilling needs of people in India, this unique training platform will aid in providing quality education to the youth present in the remotest location of the country.”

Elaborating on the concept, Divya Jain, Founder & CEO, Safeducate said, “We have created the Safeducate Container Schools with a very high visual appeal to attract people even in remote areas. They have a very professional look-and-feel, and are equipped with all amenities present in a regular school. These schools will provide Safeducate the ability to conduct trainings at any location across India where skilling is needed. This school can be set up anywhere in a short time, with just the availability of land and electricity connection. Safeducate Container Schools will help in creating job opportunities across the country, while creating skilled workforce for the industry.”

Safeducate Container School has been created by joining four refurbished containers together that were earlier being used for the purpose of logistics. First school has a training capacity of 189 students per month, with residential facility for 23 students. The school facility includes three classrooms, computer lab, activity area, recreation area, library and staff offices. Firms like CONCOR and SCI scrap over 5,000 containers every year so there is a huge potential for scaling up this model across all 680 districts of India.
