Abstract:

The Telangana State Government is strongly focused on empowerment of tribal women especially in terms of creating the employment opportunities. Telangana State Scheduled Tribes Co-operative Finance Corporation Limited (TRICOR) is providing Skill Development Program to tribes on various activities for creating the employment. The present study is an attempt to examine the perceptions of tribal women on skills for employment provided by TRICOR in Ranga Reddy district. Majority of the beneficiaries were expressed that the Skill Development Program was good. Even though, the program was good the tribal women are facing some problems after taking the training of skill development program. It is high time that the TRICOR need to put more attention on not only providing the Skill Development Program but also required to solve the problems of tribal women while implementing the programs.
