JSW Motors Ties with Tata IIS to Train Workforce for EV Manufacturing

JSW Motors Limited, the new energy vehicle (NEV) arm of the JSW Group, has taken a big step to build talent ahead of its greenfield EV plant in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra.

The company signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Tata Indian Institute of Skills (Tata IIS) to co-create a structured technical pipeline that matches real manufacturing needs. This JSW Motors NEV Partnership aims to shape a workforce ready from Day One as operations begin.

Under the collaboration, JSW Motors and Tata IIS will design a tailored curriculum for advanced EV manufacturing. Training will focus on EV systems, automation, welding, CNC operations, battery technologies and next‑generation manufacturing processes. JSW Motors will hold full hiring control and retain the right to validate the curriculum, ensuring the skills taught stay aligned with its evolving production requirements.

The Tata IIS partnership gives us structured capability, relevant curriculum, and the execution rigour aligned to our timelines. This is a deliberate bridge as we work towards building our own world‑class training academy.”

Tata IIS was chosen after a national evaluation for its strong training infrastructure and hands‑on learning approach. Venguswamy Ramaswamy, CEO Designate, Tata IIS, added that the programs will make India’s youth not just job‑ready but future‑ready.
