Abstract

A family's foundation is made up of women. Vocational training is a key instrument for job preparation and women's empowerment. The research was conducted in Shahdol’s KVK. Stitching, mehndi design, mat making, embroidery, and soybean processing are just few of the classes that KVK has organized. From the training, 136 people were chosen to participate. A sample was taken using a three-stage sampling procedure. We employed an absolute percentage, an arithmetic mean, and a paired t test to analyze the impact of vocational training. According to the findings, vocational training has a positive impact on job opportunities and income, we also studied the obstacle which stalled the progress in their employment and provide suggestion to enhance their income.

Conclusion

According to the study, the majority of respondents had a low to medium level of employment and income generation. This could be attributed to the vocational training provided by KVK in various sub-areas. Improved and increased income, as well as socioeconomic empowerment as viewed by women at the village level, could be among the benefits. In comparison to other activities, stitching has seen the most involvement. Bala et al. (2019) also revealed that training on designing of garments was most effective and useful. For more effectiveness of training KVK’s and Government should provide input at low rate or make availability of resources. As a result, it can be argued that vocational training courses contribute to the economic empowerment of rural women.
