Kathmandu, Jan. 21
Litmus Industries Limited has officially launched its Skill
Improvement Programme (SIP) for electricians.
It is a specialised skill-upgrading initiative to enhance education,
competency and safety, the company informed in a statement on Wednesday. The
programme has been rolled out initially in Kathmandu, with plans in place to
expand it nationwide in the near future.
“The SIP has been designed exclusively for electricians who
use Litmus products, underlining the company’s commitment to supporting
customers who rely on its solutions. Through this initiative, Litmus aims not
only to enhance technical expertise but also to contribute to safer electrical
practices and improved installation standards across the country,” said the
company.
The intensive 20-day training programme combines theoretical
knowledge with practical application. Key areas of focus include industrial
electrical wiring and installation, motor control systems, earthing and
lightning protection, generator systems, and other essential hands-on skills.
By strengthening professional competencies, the programme
seeks to reduce electrical hazards and improve the overall quality of
electrical infrastructure.
Training is being conducted in collaboration with Balaju
School of Engineering and Technology, an institution affiliated with the
Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training (CTEVT).
The company said that this partnership ensures that the
programme delivers structured, standardised and industry-relevant technical
education.
The programme was formally inaugurated during a signing
ceremony between Sakshi Gupta, Director of Litmus Industries, and Sushil Kumar
Shrestha, Principal of Balaju School of Engineering and Technology.
Gupta described the initiative as a responsibility towards
both society and customers, emphasising its role in promoting safer wiring
practices. Likewise, Shrestha welcomed the collaboration, noting that the
programme would positively impact society by enhancing electricians’ skills,
professionalism and safety awareness.
