Imparting IT skills to persons with disability including those with visual impairments is always a daunting task. In addition to the above, providing soft skills that add value to service providers was also encapsulated in the curriculum. These also included a brief introduction to spoken English and basic communication skills.The participation of beneficiaries was a treat to watch as the enthusiasm was infectious and verve palpable. The trainers were experts and more importantly had the experience of working with persons with disability. They were trained on special screen reader software used by visually disabled people. Additionally, attention was also given to keeping up the morale - especially during Covid times when restrictions posed challenges even on routine matters.The unmistakable and noticeable part of the program was Nabet India's placement support service.
