AVPL is creating village-level entrepreneurs and jobs through drone technology and agriculture training. In an interview with EFY's Nitisha, Co-founder and Chairman Preet Sandhu discloses how their 70 centres across 12 states offer offline courses in RPC and agricultural spraying.
What services and products does AVPL provide?
At AVPL, we offer skill development training focusing on drone technology and agriculture. We also manufacture and sell drones. The company was founded in December 2016. Our uniqueness lies in our physical presence across 12 states, with centres in 70 locations, primarily in semi-urban and rural areas.
What is the purpose of this training programme?
We aim to create one villagelevel drone entrepreneur and one village-level agri-entrepreneur across India. Our vision goes beyond skill development training. We follow the National Skill Qualification Framework, providing level-wise training while incorporating entrepreneurship into the curriculum. Our primary focus is to create job opportunities for candidates upon completing the training and encourage them to become microentrepreneurs. Ultimately, our main vision is to develop village-level entrepreneurs.
