Sector Specific Training Programs for MSMEs under RAMP scheme
The Government of Kerala has received approval for the Strategic Implementation Plan (SIP) under the “Raising and Accelerating MSME Performance (RAMP)” scheme—a World Bank-assisted Central Sector program. This initiative aims to support Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) by strengthening institutional frameworks, expanding market access, improving access to finance, enhancing governance, and promoting environmentally sustainable practices.
As part of the SIP, the Directorate of Industries and Commerce plans to empower MSMEs in the State through sector-specific skill training programs designed to build capacity and improve competitiveness. These targeted training initiatives will equip MSMEs with essential skills in various domains. The programs are expected to enhance operational efficiency, foster innovation, and enable MSMEs to better respond to market dynamics and scale sustainably. A total of 6,000 MSMEs (with Udyam Registration) are targeted to benefit from this initiative.
The training calendar for the Q4, 2025-26 is:
