NAMSAI, Mar 29: The NABARD-sponsored two Micro Enterprise Development Programmes (MEDPs) on bakery products concluded at Namsai on Wednesday. More than 60 members from different SHGs formed by ArSRLM had undergone the 2 training programmes and learned about making different bakery products viz. cakes, cupcakes, doughnuts, cookies, etc along with the proper method of packaging and selling them in the markets.
MEDPs are on-location skill development training programmes by NABARD, which attempt to bridge the skill deficits or facilitate the optimization of production activities by SHG members.
Attending both the programmes, NABARD DDM Kamal Roy said that MEDPs had been introduced to build up the skill and competence of SHG members to take up micro-enterprises with credit support from banks. Assistant Registrar of Arunachal University of Studies, Vipin Rawat highlighted the significance of micro-entrepreneurship in social upliftment.
