Description

STeP (Smile twin e learning Program)
The e-Learning Program known as STeP was started by Rasta in April 2010. STeP is a 3 month vocational training program primarily designed to guide the youth in their knowledge and understanding of spoken english and provide comprehensive training in computer usage, basic office management and personality development for young female (18 to 30years) belonging to the marginalized and underprivileged strata of the society. All of these enhance the productivity of these individuals which in turn makes them efficient and competent & simultaneously gears them for the challenges that life has in store. Rasta made a conscious decision to reserve this program for girls, who have passed X/XII and who are above 18 years of age.

Rasta trains 120 women per year (30 per batch every quarter). After this course Rasta trains them in interview skills and assist them to get a job. During 2012-15 nearly 500 girls were trained in 5 skills, namely, Spoken English, Baic Computer Skills, Basic Management, Retail Management and Personality Development. Out of these, 226 girls have been able to secure jobs, on salaries ranging from Rs 7000 to Rs 15000/- in places like Call Centre, Sub ka Bazar etc. More girls would have been employed if every one was willing to take up jobs involving night shifts and anywhere in Delhi

The total cost of training one individual on all the aspects described above and make them employable is Rs 12000 /- Your donation will be used to fund teaching expenses, stationery and other miscellaneous expenses.
