‘Collaboration must to promote skilling in logistics business’

Skilling is a very important subject and absolutely it’s a shared responsibility, says Jivisha Joshi (IRTS) Deputy Secretary, DPIIT at an event organised by Air Cargo Forum India (ACFI) to emphasise upon ‘Skilling – A shared responsibility to propel air cargo.’ She adds, “Skilling is one of the most important pillars of government’s comprehensive logistics master plans. Be it National Logistics Policy or Gati Shakti initiative, skilling is an integral part of it and time to time stress has been laid upon identifying the number of institutions across India imparting education on logistics and supply chain business. We have been trying to educate officers about the new policies, we are educating workers at group level about policy implementation or execution guidelines. We also work with Logistics Skill Council (LSC) to understand the logistics courses and curriculums, and number of logistics aspirants enrolling yearly. I thank ACFI for continuously promoting skilling as a subject. We need skilled and trade manpower to take the industry forward and we are there to support the trade throughout.” Many other dignitaries from government department and industry participated in the event wherein ACFI honored and felicitated ACFI trainers who have been the backbone of ACFI initiative to skill the logistics industry.
