The National Council for Vocational Education and Training (NCVET) has recognised the Adani Skills and Education Foundation as an Awarding Body (Standard) with nationwide jurisdiction. The agreement, signed on November 26, 2025, authorises the foundation to certify learners for NCVET-approved qualifications in the port logistics sector.
For India Inc., the recognition signals stronger industry-driven skilling frameworks—particularly in ports and logistics, a sector witnessing rapid expansion with rising cargo movement, private investment, and infrastructure upgrades. Leveraging the Adani Group’s extensive operational experience, the partnership is expected to bring enhanced training quality and industry-aligned standards to the national vocational ecosystem.
NCVET has already approved the foundation’s first qualification in Port Management, positioning it to create a steady supply of trained professionals for a sector critical to India’s economic growth and global trade ambitions. Industry analysts note that such qualifications will help bridge talent gaps in operations, port services, and modern logistics management.
For fast-growing logistics hubs like Guwahati, the announcement is expected to generate renewed interest in skill-oriented careers. The city’s expanding warehousing clusters, rising cargo movements, and its strategic role as a Northeast trade gateway highlight the demand for certified professionals. Businesses in Guwahati anticipate that the NCVET-Adani certification pipeline could create a more skilled workforce for multimodal logistics, inland waterways, and cross-border trade operations. NCVET said the partnership will enhance the vocational training landscape and provide youth with credible pathways to national-level employment opportunities.
