About Us
The JIM ( Japan-India Institute for Manufacturing) is a part of joint-governmental initiatives of the Government of Japan and India for skilling the manufacturing-related human resources in India. An MOC (Memorandum of Cooperation) was signed between the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE) of the Government of India and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, (METI) of the Government of Japan in November 2016 with a goal to “Train 30,000 floor shop leaders and engineers to Japanese standards in the next 10 years.”
The Reasons leading up to the creation of the ” Japan-India Institute for Manufacturing (JIM)” and the “Japanese Endowed Courses (JEC)”Schemes include the need for better Job-related Technical skills and understanding of Japanese-manufacturing practices such as 5S, Kaizen, etc. and bettering of soft-skills (discipline, work-culture) amongst the human resources that are currently studying to join the manufacturing sector.
