NSN News Digest turns one today! And, we are excited about how far we have come in our pursuit to share the positive impact of skill development, training and vocational education in India. The News Digest was conceptualized while we were learning about the initiatives and outcomes by interacting with different stakeholders and researching from authoritative resources online and on print, in our effort to understand the emerging skill development ecosystem in India. The News Digest has evolved as the Skill Times newsletter.

Our idea of sharing information in the form of a fortnightly News Digest was welcomed and appreciated by the professional community and since then we’ve never missed writing and editing a single edition. And, of course, we’ve been following high professional and ethical standards in creating and publishing content in strict adherence with IP laws for web content and terms and conditions for web content reproduction and sharing.
