PANCHVKTRA SKILL CENTER

Mahabaleshwar-Wai stands as one of the most dynamic economic regions in Maharashtra, with the retail and hotel industries driving local growth. These sectors not only support the tourism ecosystem of this scenic region but also provide essential employment and entrepreneurial opportunities to local communities. Recognising their pivotal role in regional development, efforts have been underway to further strengthen these industries through skills and workforce development initiatives.

Empowering Youth Through Skill Development

To unlock the full potential of the local youth and align workforce capabilities with industry needs, the Maharashtra Government has placed a strong emphasis on skill empowerment and vocational training. With youth employment and hospitality excellence as central goals, the government partnered with Skill Tree — a national leader in skills infrastructure and implementation.

Panchvktara Foundation Skill Centre — Bridging Skill Gaps

In October 2025, as part of this vision, Skill Tree joined hands with the Maharashtra Government to establish the Panchvktara Foundation Skill Centre. This centre was conceptualised and developed with the aim of offering industry-ready hospitality training to young people, especially from the Satara district of Maharashtra.
