Leather Sector Skill Council launches Mobile App for quality assurance New Delhi, Oct 16 (KNN) Aiming to enhance quality assurance under Skill India Mission, the Leather Sector Skill Council (LSSC) on Thursday announced the launch of Skill Certification Assessment for Leather Employees (SCALE) India android app. It is a single platform to integrate quality assurance across all its services.

Operating under the aegis of the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE), LSSC is committed to strengthen its digital capabilities on quality assurance across training delivery, monitoring, assessments, verification and linkages to the ASEEM portal.

Synonymous with assessments, the cornerstone of quality assurance and one of the main functions of LSSC, this unique initiative aims to provide a one-stop solution for the skilling, learning, assessment and employment needs of the leather and leather products industry.

The android app was launched by Dr. Mahendra Nath Pandey, Union Minister of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship at a virtual event that witnessed participation of P R Aqeel Ahmed, Chairman, LSSC and Rajesh Rathnam, CEO, LSSC. The platform caters to the need of all the stakeholders of the skilling and employment ecosystem namely – candidate/trainee, employer, employee, assessor and trainer - all at one place.

The services are accessible through the web and android application that virtually works on any smart handheld device, desktop/laptop, smartphones, tablets or phablets. Apart from providing end to end quality assurance across training, assessment, and certification services, the app will also help employers engage with other stakeholders seamlessly and provide a marketplace for human capital for the leather industry.

Dr. Mahendra Nath Pandey said, “The launch of SCALE India platform by LSSC will boost our relentless efforts to strengthen the leather skilling ecosystem and help us inch closer to fulfill our Hon’ble Prime Minister’s vision of making an ‘Aatmnirbhar Bharat’ the ‘Skill Capital of the World’. ”

By leveraging technology to bring in efficient and intelligent tools to drive demand-driven and future-relevant skilling programs, this platform will ensure seamless convergence and coordination across various schemes and programs as a single point interface, he added.

It will also help leather MSMEs for learning and up skilling. Employees across the leather and leather products industry can register themselves to explore e-learning content for upskilling and get a certified post learning, leading to improvement in productivity, better perks, and upward career movement.
