Skills in Schools Through our Skills in Schools program, computerized vocational and life skills trainings took place in several Amrita Vidyalayam Schools throughout India. Students participated in courses such as two-wheeler repair, maintenance, soap making vocational courses. 21st Century skills are an important component of traditional learning. Design, prototyping and maker skills are much needed competencies to integrate into traditional school pedagogies. AMMACHI Labs' Second Foundation series of workshops reimagines education holistically, combining high technology with social and emotional learning (SEL) in five areas - Maker skills, Vulnerability Mapping, Computational Thinking, Robotics & Life Skills in schools and villages across India.

The pilot program aims to reach 27 Amrita Vidyalayam Schools across India in the near future. The courses are delivered through the online vocational training portal MySangham which was developed by AMMACHI Labs and A-VIEW.
