A leading construction firm in Bangalore offered jobs to every single graduate from the first class at the Ashirvad Plumbing School. And as news of the training has spread around the industry, several major builders are looking to recruit the upcoming groups of students.

One of the first plumbing schools in India, the Ashirvad Plumbing School offers aspiring plumbers in the Bangalore region access to a comprehensive training in best plumbing practices, occupational health and safety and water and energy conservation. And the training provided by Aliaxis business Ashirvad is making life flow for the students: the first graduates are already earning a decent salary and employment opportunities beckon for those yet to complete their courses.

The school is fully equipped with high-class labs, 18 demo toilets, sewage and water treatment plants, solar hot water systems, recirculation systems, pumps and high-pressure systems. It also offers accommodation at a Student Hostel Facility nearby. The four-month Apprentice and Master Plumber courses are designed and recognized by the Indian Plumbing Sector Skill Council. But as well as learning plumbing theory and practice, the students have a chance to develop their English language and computer skills.

This is just one example of how Aliaxis businesses are involved in the regions where they operate by helping to install or improve drinking water supplies, to provide sanitation facilities, to implement infrastructure projects for collecting and storing rainwater, to drill groundwater wells, but also, as in this case, to build schools or implement local education programmes.
