Pillar: Education & Training
Dindori trains 424.2 youth per lakh under short-term skilling programmes, better than the typical district. 44.5% of young women aged 15 to 21 are out of education, behind the typical district. The Jan Shikshan Sansthan focuses non-formal skilling on dropouts and women who need a route back into livelihoods without returning to a classroom.
82% of registered enterprises are in services while 18% are in manufacturing. Only 2% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. Only 56% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12). Only 44% of ITI trainers are certified.
