Vocational Training

Industrial Training Centre
- Kollam

Founded in 1989, ITC provides training in 10 trades for 500 teenagers. The institution strives to build the confidence of the adolescents, giving them a sense of self-reliance so that they can take up their trade in a wide range of work environments or become self-employed. The centre has more than an 80% graduation rate and is highly regarded by employers. After the tsunami disaster, it opened its doors, free of charge, to hundreds of local youths who were invited by Amma to train there, to help them rebuild their lives after the disaster.
