The National Skill Development Corporation of India (NSDC) under a Public Private Partnership promoted by the Ministry of Finance, Government of India signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Center for Research & Industrial Staff Performance (CRISP), India. 

Accordingly, the two entities will explore national and international opportunities for strengthening skills development in India. Mukesh Sharma, CEO, CRISP and Dilip Chenoy, MD & CEO, NSDC signed and exchanged the MOU recently in Delhi.

The main objective of this collaboration is to work jointly on projects and plans for capacity building of NSDC partnering institutions for offering value added services to the Skill development initiative in India. Additionally, they will create suitable interventions for state level operations, which will offer quality-oriented skills and services in an efficient manner.

NSDC offers the financial support for creating measurable and profit focused vocational training initiatives. Whereas CRISP offer sustainable development via organizational and human resources development, advanced level skill training, tooling and precision machining, vocational education and training an IT consultancy.

Thus the union would be symbiotic in nature, since both the organisations have strong footings in their respective arenas.
