Indira Gandhi National Open University has plans for developing 400 training centres in Bihar to improve educational facilities in the state and provide more vocational opportunities of the youths.
The IGNOU training centres "will be equipped with computer labs to provide distance education through information technology to the remotest parts of the state", said IGNOU.
In addition "it is estimated that during the year 2009-10, 25,000 government officials will be trained by the IGNOU”.
Despite the fact that the value of the Human Development Index has been constantly increasing, it is yet to reach the level of other states.
"These programmes will not only enable them become competitively skilled, on par with the workforce of other states, but also help Bihar to significantly improve its Human Development Index," the official said.
A deal has been signed between IGNOU and the state government of Bihar for the rolling out of projects, which are backed by government, called 'Samarth'.
