Students from Tripura Gets Jobs in Japan met Chief Minister Manik Saha on Friday, who felicitated them and wished them the very best.
In a major boost to global employment opportunities for Tripura’s youth, six nursing students have secured high-paying jobs in Japan after completing a nine-month Japanese language training program under the state government’s flagship Mukhyamantri Dakhyata Prakalpa.
Before their departure, students met Chief Minister Manik Saha on Friday, who felicitated them and wished them the very best.
The selected students, hailing from modest backgrounds, have been offered salaries exceeding Rs 1 lakh per month, thanks to the Specified Skill Worker (SSW) Program—a collaborative effort between India and Japan to facilitate skilled workforce exchange.
Under the Mukhyamantri Dakhyata Prakalpa, the Directorate of Skill Development, Government of Tripura, in collaboration with NSDC International, has been actively preparing nursing students for overseas employment.
The initiative provides full financial support, covering training, travel, and accommodation costs, ensuring that financial constraints do not hinder students from securing international jobs.
As part of the program, students undergo residential Japanese language and nursing training for nine months in Greater Noida, followed by certification exams and interviews. Those who qualify are placed in Japan as nursing caregivers under the SSW residency status, which allows for long-term employment in Japan’s healthcare sector.
The state government has already sent three nursing students to Japan, with six more set to leave soon. Additionally, 21 candidates are currently undergoing training, and the program aims to place 81 students in Japan within the next two years. This initiative not only tackles unemployment in Tripura but also contributes to foreign exchange earnings.
With financial backing from the North Eastern Council, the Directorate of Skill Development is committed to expanding similar opportunities for ANM, GNM, and B.Sc Nursing candidates, reinforcing Tripura’s position as a key contributor to India’s skilled workforce in the global healthcare sector.
