New vistas for nurses with German skills

The New Indian Express Vijayawada

|

August 04, 2025

HE Andhra Pradesh State Skill Development Corporation (APSSDC) is enabling nursing graduates to explore overseas job opportunities through its ambitious German Language Training (GLT) initiative.

In an exclusive interview with K Kalyan Krishna Kumar, APSSDC Managing Director (MD) and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) G Ganesh Kumar discusses the scope of the programme, its progress, and what lies ahead.

How large is the pool of unemployed nurses in AP?

There are around 32,000 sanctioned seats for nursing courses in the State. Every year, nearly 26,000 graduates pass out, and a significant number remain unemployed due to limited local job opportunities.

When was the German Language Training (GLT) initiative launched?

The programme began in 2023. From the first batch, 15 candidates underwent training, and two nurses have cleared the B2 level exam. They are preparing to move to Germany for job.

What awareness initiatives have been taken to promote overseas placements?
