National Apprenticeship Promotion Scheme

The National Apprenticeship Promotion Scheme (NAPS) is an initiative by the Indian government aimed at enhancing the apprenticeship system in the country. It promotes skill development by encouraging employers to hire apprentices, who are individuals undergoing training while working to gain practical experience in various trades. The scheme provides financial incentives to employers to support apprenticeship opportunities, thus helping young people gain valuable skills and improve their employability. By fostering a skilled workforce, NAPS contributes to economic growth and addresses the gap between education and industry needs.
