Scholarship
Chief Minister’s Paryatan Siksha Yojana(CMPSY)
Overview
About CMPSY
The Chief Minister's Paryatan Siksha Yojana is a tourism-skilling scheme of the Government of Arunachal Pradesh, run by the state's Directorate of Tourism. It sits with the tourism department rather than an education department, and it exists to build the pool of trained people the state's tourism and hospitality sector needs.
The support is in kind rather than cash in hand. The scheme sponsors students through recognised courses and meets the cost of that training: a set of places on a three-year B.Sc. in Hospitality and Hotel Administration at an institute approved by the Union Ministry of Tourism, and a larger set of places on shorter diploma courses in areas such as food production, front office, housekeeping and food and beverage service. Practical exposure and hands-on training are part of the scheme.
It is aimed at students from Arunachal Pradesh who have finished school, with the course a student can apply for depending on their level of study. The Chief Minister's Tourism Scholarship strand within it is open only to candidates from the state's Scheduled Tribes. Applications go through the district tourism offices and the state Directorate of Tourism, which handle selection and document verification.
