Over the decades, these institutes have played a pivotal role in equipping students with skills relevant to various industries. However, with rapid technological advancements and changing industry requirements, there has been a growing need to modernize and upgrade ITIs to ensure that they continue to meet the evolving demands of the job market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Previous_Initiatives\"><\/span>Previous Initiatives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Prior to the PM SETU Scheme, the government launched several initiatives aimed at improving vocational education and training. These include the establishment of National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC), Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY), and the Skill India Mission. While these programs have made significant strides in skill development, the need for a comprehensive and integrated approach to modernize ITIs became evident, leading to the formulation of the PM SETU Scheme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Significance_of_the_PM_SETU_Scheme\"><\/span>Significance of the PM SETU Scheme<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The PM SETU Scheme represents a paradigm shift in India&#8217;s approach to vocational education.
