A total of 59 fellows of the inaugural batch of the Mahatma Gandhi National Fellowship (MGNF – Phase II) of the Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode (IIMK) completed their two-year intensive programme.
K.N. Raghavan, Director General of the National Academy of Customs, Indirect taxes and Narcotics (NACIN), was the chief guest at the function which was presided over Debashis Chatterjee, Director, IIMK.
MGNF is a visionary programme of the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE), managed by IIMK. It ingrains academic inputs, workshops, mentoring, and extensive field immersions at the district level that finally culminate in the award of a certificate in public policy and management to successful participants. The Fellows of IIMK were posted in Chhattisgarh, Kerala, Nagaland, and the National Capital Territory of Delhi. The respective State Skill Development Missions (SSDMs) also played an important role in supporting the Fellows’ mission of advancing the development of a skilling ecosystem.
