CDROME Education Society is a registered NGO under the Pansi Group. We secure government grants — from the Prime Minister's Office, ONGC-CSR, JNPA-CSR, and state skill missions — and use every rupee to deliver completely free vocational skill training to India's most economically vulnerable communities across Maharashtra, Gujarat, West Bengal, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Delhi, and Odisha. We are the first NGO selected under the Prime Minister's Special Project for Free Computer Education in North East & Tribal Areas.
The CDROME Model
Government and CSR funds are channelled through CDROME directly to the learner — at zero cost.
CDROME applies for government grants — from national skill missions, state schemes, and CSR mandates from ONGC, JNPA, and corporate partners.
