SGSITS comes up with industry-aligned training programmes under Rishta scheme

Indore: Shri Govindram Seksaria Institute of Technology and Science (SGSITS) will launch short-term training and undergraduate certificate programmes in emerging technologies under the Madhya Pradesh govt's Rising Skill for Holistic Technical Advancement (Rishta) scheme. Aimed at enhancing technical education and employability, the courses are expected to be launched by mid-June. The college is working on collaborating with leading industries, corporate organisations, and training agencies to introduce the programmes. They will cover high-demand fields such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, data science, cybersecurity, electric vehicles, 3D printing, IoT, embedded systems, and more. The unique aspect of this initiative is that students from other institutions, not just SGSITS, will also be eligible to enrol. "This initiative will not only benefit students but also fulfil the industry's demand for skilled professionals. It's a win-win situation for both students and industries alike. Students will be charged nominal fees depending on the course module," said dean of academics research and skill development at SGSITS Prof Lalit Purohit The Rishta scheme, spearheaded by Madhya Pradesh department of technical education and skill development, aims to bridge the gap between academic learning and industry needs by equipping students with practical, job-oriented skills. To implement this vision, SGSITS plans to partner with renowned companies that will assist in course design and deliver training through their domain experts. The training modules will include classroom instruction, hands-on practical sessions, project-based learning, and internship certifications. Top-performing students may also be offered job opportunities by the participating companies, which in turn benefit by gaining access to a skilled talent pool. Short-term courses ranging from 10 to 40 credits will be conducted in evenings or on weekends, making them accessible to a broader group of learners. Each credit will equate to 15 hours of training. Some courses may be delivered online, while others will be held on campus or at industry locations. The full-time undergraduate certificate programmes will require a minimum of 40 credits.
