Khajuria says focus on upskilling the faculty members with FDPs
Rishabh Software, with a team of 700+ employees across the US, UK and India as well as 1,000+ projects globally executed from Vadodra, has set up a technology education programme to nurture 1,000+ young tech minds to be industry-ready in the next five years.
The Rishabh Software skilling initiative – RISE (Rishabh Integrated Skill Enhancement) is to work through a Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with the Gujarat State Fertilizers & Chemicals (GSFC) University and Asian School of Business Management (ASBM) University.
The MoUs are under the two universities’ technology education programmes.
“Through our RISE initiative, we are working to nurture 1,000+ young tech minds to be industry-ready in the next five years,” said Saumil Shah, Chief Strategy Officer at Rishabh Software.
“This program would feature collaborative support across academic initiatives, enhancement of soft skills and a focus on innovation by imparting knowledge through live projects and hands-on learning,” added Dr. Rajesh Khajuria, Vice President at RISE.
This association would also focus on upskilling the faculty members with Faculty Development Programs (FDPs) to address emerging industry requirements in line with National Occupational Standards,” he said on 5 July 2022.
The agreement between RISE and the universities is unique because it will leverage the institutions’ strengths to create better opportunities in technical education that meets the current and future workforce demands. Most importantly, the objective would be to help meet the industry needs of students to support their “College to Corporate” journey.
As per the MoUs, RISE would play the role of a strategic implementation partner. The RISE team would help the universities to design customized technology programs that integrate into their curriculum through experiences such as blended learning, multi-disciplinary learning and activity-based learning.
RISE would work with the universities in content curation, monitoring the learning program and conducting periodic assessments. The students who excel in this program will have project work or internship opportunities with Rishabh Software.
Rishabh Software is a CMMI 3, ISO 9001:2019 and ISO 27001 certified organization. It specializes in software development, technology consulting, engineering and IT-enabled services. fiinews.com
