Founded in 2016, the Govardhan Skill Centre, an initiative of Govardhan EcoVillage (GEV), is filling a massive gap among rural and tribal residents by providing educational and employment opportunities.

The institution was conceived by HH Radhanath Swami and has been operating under the leadership of HG Maithili Priya Devi Dasi (Mrs. Maithili Desai), the Sri Nityananda Educational Trust, and APAR Industries Ltd. 

The Govardhan Skill Centre, as an educational institution, currently offers both CSR-sponsored and government-funded courses like welding or plumbing for the benefit and skill training of rural/tribal youth. Women-specific courses include topics like tailoring, dress-making, and basic or advanced beautician training.

In the cow products and incense manufacturing unit of the centre, various rural/tribal women are employed in preparing cow-based natural, herbal products, and incense products. Various entrepreneurial workshops are offered, including 3D printing technology, spice and pickle manufacturing, diya paintings, and more. There are also gardening and handicrafts courses conducted regularly.
