Skill Development
The Chamber initiated a vocational skill development centre during its 175th year celebrations to bridge the skill gap between Industry and Academia and continues its skill development in many ways. The Chamber has collaborated with like-minded organizations like PAN IIT Alumni Reach for India Foundation (PARFI) to train unskilled youth and upskill semi-skilled workers to bridge skill gaps, promote employability, and increase the availability of skilled workers to Industries in Tamil Nadu.
As a liaison between academic institutions and industries, the Chamber has established strong relationships and has held joint programs for the benefit of the students every year. The Chamber and Tamil Nadu Skill Development Corporation have an MOU for implementing skill development training programs in varied sectors.
CSR Awards : The MCCI CSR Awards were established in 2018 to recognize the CSR projects being carried out cooperatively by corporates and NGOs for the greater social welfare in Tamil Nadu.
