THRISSUR: To give girls belonging to backward classes an edge in the
competitive job market, the Kerala SC/ST Women's Welfare Association
has decided to introduce BPO training programme for them in the
district headquarters.

The association's legal advisor advocate Sunil M Karani said on
Tuesday that the short-term courses were aimed at equipping tribal
students with the nitty-gritty of the BPO industry.

"The free course will be held with the support of BPO training centres
and placement cells in every district. Our aim is to improve the
professional standard of these girls and help them to be on a par with
their urban colleagues," he said.

Minister for the welfare of backward communities P K Jayalakshmi had
promised financial aid for the training programme, especially designed
for SC/ST girls who had passed plus-two or an equivalent course.

"The association will soon invite call centre institutes to train the
girls. A few call centre institutes based in the southern districts
have already shown interest to train them and the response from the
girls for the programme has also been encouraging.

We have already received 100 applications. Though we do not assure
them jobs, we are sure the BPO companies will approach us for the
same," Marani said.
