Education to
provide the best
technology courses
that will upskill the
youth and enhance
their employability.
As part of the
collaboration, IBM
will provide six
courses on the
NEAT platform from
IBM’s Skills
Academy – a world-
class training and
certification
program designed
to bridge the skills
gap of learners in
colleges and universities worldwide. Students and faculty will receive hands-on training for a more
enriched learning experience, and students will also earn an IBM Digital Certification upon course
completion.
 
Prof. Anil Dattatraya Sahasrabudhe, Chairperson, AICTE said, “The NEAT 2.0 portal leverages
technology to offer the best industry courses that give students adaptive and personalized
learning, better learning outcomes, and skill development in niche areas under a common
platform. There’s a need to make pedagogical systems more learner-centric and we are bringing in
industry experts like IBM, with their Skills Academy Courses, to deliver high-quality content directly
to colleges and students. This initiative is a big step towards developing high employability &
entrepreneurship, leading to Aatmanirbhar Bharat and will bring revolutionary changes to online
learning in India.”
 
Mona Bharadwaj, Global University Programs Leader, IBM India said, “With technology being the
unifier and disruptor of business in the past decade, there has been an accelerated adoption of
new-age technologies like Hybrid Cloud, AI, Analytics, quantum computing & IoT even as the
demand-supply gap for technology skills continues to widen in India. Universities and colleges
need to equip their students with 21st-century skillsets that will build career paths for a young
workforce. Our engagement with AICTE is a key step forward in industry-academia collaboration
that aims to improve the training and technical education opportunities of students across India
and enhance employability.”
 
The International Labour Organization estimates India’s skill deficit at 29 million by 2030. A recent
IBM Institute for Business Value (IBV) study found that approximately 30% of Gen Z and
millennial working professionals plan to enroll in a formal degree, certification, or badging
program in 2021. IBM is working with multiple government bodies across sectors to incorporate
technical and professional skills training as part of curriculums and to provide free digital
education through various initiatives.
