Notice Inviting Proposals for Empanelment under RTD Scheme

Principal Secretary, Dept. of Labour Resources, Govt. of Bihar- cum- CEO, Bihar Skill Development Mission (BSDM), invites proposals from reputed and experienced eligible organizations (Industries/ Employers/ HR-Placement Agency/ Training Partners/ Start-ups/ Industry Associations/ Government Training Providers) for empanelment with Bihar Skill Development Mission (BSDM) as an agency for providing domain skilling and employment under Recruit-Train-Deploy (RTD) model.

A Brief on Recruit – Train – Deploy (R-T-D) model projects:
Projects that will have the provision of recruiting the candidates and providing the offer letters upfront and then providing Industry/Employer relevant training before actually deploying the candidates at their work location.

The offer letters to be issued up front will be conditional offer letter and will be formalized subject to passing of the final assessment and completion of other formalities by the candidate. For the specific purpose of RTD model, Employment will mean wage employment only unless otherwise stated or allowed by BSDM for specific and unique kinds of projects (for ex. Entrepreneurship). Please note that offer letter will be conditional on only one ground i.e. passing of final assessment and no deviation/changes will be allowed in the conditional offer letter that has been given at the time of screening of candidate and the formalized offer letter that will be issued post completion of training.

The underlying objective is to provide such skill training which meets the specific job requirements of industries/organizations having demand for skilled manpower for their business operations in India or overseas.

BSDM through this special initiative intends to provide such training to people of Bihar which will open up avenues for their instant employment in India or Overseas.  The Training will have to be imparted in courses either prescribed by Qualification Packs (QPs) of Sector Skill Councils (SSCs) or any other course/s (customized course/s that will suit the specific needs of employing organizations) that may be proposed by the applicant and approved by BSDM.

Thus a distinguishing feature of this model is that candidates are screened first and offered job and only on their acceptance and readiness for all the terms and conditions of the offered job and location, they are provided necessary customized training, the successful completion of which guarantees them the promised placement. Another distinguished feature includes flexibility of course content, duration of training and assessment and certification by the applicant organization.

BSDM is proposing four types of Associations under RTD model.

  1. Industry Led (Type A Association)
  2. HR/Placement Agency Led (Type B Association)
  3. Training Partner Led (Type C Association)
  4. Special Projects (Type D).
