The District Institute of Education and Training (DIET), Kozhikode, has launched a training programme to develop and promote entrepreneurial skills and job orientation among schoolchildren. Titled ‘IntelliTrait’, the project is being implemented in 17 higher secondary schools and as many high schools in the district in the first phase. U.K. Abdunnasar, Principal, DIET, said that quite often children choose their areas of higher studies without identifying their own inherent skills or tastes.
