GREATER NOIDA ROHIT SHARMA
Indian plumbing council (IPSC) is the apex sector skill council for the plumbing industry, operating under the agies of National Skills Development Corporation (NSDC), an initiative of the Government of India (Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship- MSDE) to transform India is a hub for skilled manpower.
The Plumbing Industry faces the mammoth challenge of huge gap between the supply and demand of skilled workforce. A very small percentage of the plumbing workforce is actually skilled in India. It becomes our duty as plumbing professionals, members of the Indian plumbing industry and other various plumbing related organizations and associations to ensure that skilled and certified manpower in adequate number is provided across industries using plumbing skills to raise plumbing standards in India to global levels. About 90% of the Plumbing industry workforce in India is not professionally trained. Most of the skill learning in the industry happens through unstructured, on-the job training (OJT)”.
In India we are striving to match the standards and change the mind-set towards Plumbers because Plumber is a “Nation’s Water Supply Protector”. Plumber is the first soldier in the line of defense against diseases. Lack of professionally trained plumbers is a major drawback for country’s construction and related sectors. IPSC is endeavoring to address these issues and is making efforts to bring the skill levels of our Country to World Standards.
ISH provides the platform to spread the voice of IPSC to the Industry and make them aware about IPSC and its mission. It is an excellent opportunity to communicate with all the sub sectors of Plumbing Industry to inspire them to support and be a part of ‘Skill India Mission’ envisioned by Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi.
