The National Career Service (NCS) project envisaged setting up of 100 Model Career Centers (MCCs) in collaboration with various States/UTs and Private Institutions to deliver Employment Services during the 12th Five Year Plan. The NCS Portal is India’s largest employment platform for bringing people and opportunities together.
