Unnati has several trustees. Ramesh Swamy, one of the chief Trustees of Unnati was invited recently by the Federal Government of Germany to participate as a guest in their visitors program to highlight the German Dual Education System. It is a great honour to India since he is the only Indian in the total group of representatives from 15 countries around the globe. The program has profound vision as it would be perceived and envisioned in a unique way. All the participants in this programme exchanged their views on vocational training and as a result there are great insights and valuable inputs to extend it further.
