Ms. Meenakshi Chidambaram, General Manager, IIT Madras Pravartak Technologies Foundation, spoke about the demand for these training programs.
"India's quickly changing economy requires an understanding of not just the technical domain, but of integration across disciplines. Bridging the gap between what is taught and what is needed is the intent of these programs. The focus is to offer students and educators the skills for the sectors of the economy that are heavily based on innovation and provide opportunities that are not easily available. To make these skills available to educators, students, professionals and institutions is to provide tools that are practical to the industry, to make learning systems in India more flexible, aligned to the needs of industry, and more resilient."
