Bhubaneswar: Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on Friday inaugurated the World Skill Center, an advanced skill training institute, in Bhubaneswar.

The WSC has been established under the Odisha Skill Development Project, assisted by the Asian Development Bank with ITE Education Services (ITEES), Singapore as a knowledge partner.
"Odisha has made rapid strides in skill development in the last five years. We have created new avenues for our youth to compete with their counterparts anywhere. Our aim is to meet their aspirations, to make them globally employable," Patnaik said.
The chief minister also said that the government is intensely investing in the future of the youth by creating infrastructure and mechanisms.
World Skill Center will significantly accelerate the government's endeavor by providing advanced skill training to Odisha youths and prepare them for competing at the global level, he said.
Skill Development and Technical Education Minister Premananda Nayak, Odisha Skill Development Authority Chairman Subroto Bagchi were among several senior officers and industry leaders present at the event.
Bagchi highlighted the achievements of 'Skilled-in- Odisha' during the last five years and emphasised on the need to expand skill development efforts to the next level, reaching every village.
Kenichi Yokoyama, DG, Asian Development Bank, and Bruce Poh, CEO, ITEES were also present.
The center has been set up at a cost of nearly Rs 1,342 crore.
