Frontline worker (Sample Collection Support), COVID Frontline Worker (Emergency Care Support) and COVID Frontline Worker (Advanced Care

focused on their areas of interest and grow with confidence in life. He awarded certificates to more than 100 graduating candidates at the event.
Sharing his thoughts about the importance of such skill certification courses, Mr Ashish Jain, CEO, Healthcare Sector Skill Council said “It is
the need of the hour to strengthen the healthcare system of our country by creating a pool of trained manpower. This requirement of trained and
skilled workforce became important during the pandemic which resulted into development of Covid Frontline Workers job roles by HSSC.
More than 500 candidates were trained by the training partners at Valeur Fabtex Pvt Ltd, Max Healthcare Institute, and Wipro GE Healthcare
