Employability Skills Training Programme for Female Students under Mahindra & Mahindra’s CSR initiative
Mahindra Pride Classroom is a flagship Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Livelihood programme of the Mahindra and Mahindra group and is fully implemented by Naandi Foundation, a Public Charitable Trust incorporated under the Indian Trusts Act, having its registered office in Hyderabad.
Mahindra Pride Classroom’s vision is “To mainstream socially and economically disadvantaged youth, through the process of skill-development training, so as to make them employable in the various sector”.
The team strongly believes that apart from academic education, Skill Development is also required for students when they step out into the professional world. It is imperative for young adults to be equipped with essential life skills and soft skills. While certain skills may be acquired through everyday experience at home, Classroom or College, they are not sufficient to adequately equip the youth in today’s complex society.
The Mahindra Pride Classroom aims to help students to:
• Develop an identity and improve their self-esteem.
• Manage emotions and overcome obstacles.
• Build relationships and polish their interpersonal skills.
• Enhance and improve employability skills.
• Improve personal and professional effectiveness.

The life skills component of the training module has helped to transform the learners into confident, determined, goal-oriented youth – a personality shift essential for them to pursue successful careers in the sectors of their choice.
It has helped improve students’ understanding of the world and their role and responsibility towards it. It has also enabled them in finding ways to cope with the challenges that life throws at them. These young adults, who underwent our training, firmly believe that they will be able to live a more productive and fulfilling life.
