Teacher Training Centre
District
Pune
States
Maharashtra
In 1990, the trust initiated a Teacher Training program, recognized by the Rehabilitation Council of India, New Delhi. The demand for such a centre was significant, as no other facility in Maharashtra offered this service. This need prompted the establishment of a Teacher Training Centre in Pune to serve the state. To date, nearly 200 teachers have been successfully trained, contributing to the education and empowerment of visually impaired students across Maharashtra.
