Bankers Institute of Rural
Development (BIRD), Lucknow is a premier institute
for providing training, research and consultancy services
in the field of agriculture and rural development banking
in India. The institute was established in 1983 by National
Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD),
the apex development bank supporting agriculture and
rural development in India. In 1992, BIRD was reconstituted
as a Society (under the Indian Societies Registration
Act, 1860), promoted and funded by NABARD. Since then,
BIRD made significant strides and carved out
a niche for itself in the training map of India. It
is widely known in Banking, Government and NGO sectors
for the quality of its product and services. The institute
offers custom designed training solutions for banks,
government agencies, NGOs and other institutions connected
with agriculture and rural development banking to address
the new challenges concerning the sector. BIRD
also organizes international training programmes and
workshops in collaboration with global partners such
as ILO, APRACA, CICTAB etc. |
