Selected trainees/participants get training on different aspects of development e.g. formation of different groups (SHG, Parent Association, Farmers’ groups, Youth group etc.) to have desired results in their community and personal life. They are also trained to identify community needs and scientific way to resolve the issues through community participants. A dedicated trainers’ team has developed effective community development training modules which suits for the rural people.
