Ajay’s journey is a powerful example of how skill development programs can change lives. Coming from a financially struggling household in Agra, Ajay was determined to find a way to support his family. With seven members relying on limited resources, his prospects seemed daunting. However, a recommendation from friends led him to Centum Foundation’s training center, supported by HDFC Bank Parivartan, where his life took a transformative turn.

Ajay enrolled in the Business Correspondent/Facilitator course, a three-month program designed to provide both theoretical knowledge and practical skills. The course covered a wide range of topics, including banking sector basics, practical applications, and comprehensive business theories. This rigorous training equipped Ajay with the necessary skills to excel in the financial sector.

His dedication and hard work during the training paid off when Centum Foundation facilitated his placement at AYE Finance Private Limited. Now working as a Sales Executive, Ajay earns a salary of INR 20,000, which has significantly improved his family’s financial situation. This new role not only provided him with a stable income but also instilled a sense of pride and achievement, allowing him to support his family effectively.

Ajay’s story is a testament to the impact of accessible education and training programs. It highlights the importance of providing opportunities for individuals from underprivileged backgrounds to gain vital skills and secure meaningful employment. Through the collaborative efforts of Centum Foundation and HDFC Bank Parivartan, Ajay was able to turn his aspirations into reality, showcasing the true power of perseverance and opportunity.

As we celebrate Ajay’s accomplishments, we continue our mission to empower more individuals like him. The partnership between Centum Foundation and HDFC Bank Parivartan remains dedicated to creating opportunities, fostering growth, and transforming lives through targeted skill development initiatives.
