A major change is underway in Bihar's school education system, which will provide vocational training to 11th and 12th-grade students. The Bihar Education Project Council has begun preparations for this initiative. As part of these plans, vocational training trades will be introduced in 555 schools across the state. It is believed that providing vocational training at the school level will be of great benefit to students. They will easily gain opportunities to develop professional skills while still in school. This will lead to employment and job opportunities after school.

Two trades will be introduced in each school.
Under the Bihar Education Project Council's plan, vocational training will be introduced in 555 schools. Two trades will be introduced in each school. The council will appoint two trainers per school. This will result in the appointment of 1,110 trainers across the state. Tenders have been issued for this purpose.

Under the Bihar Education Project Council's plan, vocational training will be introduced in 555 schools across the state. Labs will also be established in the schools according to the trades.
