Singapore, January 29, 2022: It is often seen that there?s a gap between what is taught in many academic institutions and the skills that the industry demands. This gap between the industry and the academics affects the employability of the students. Students need to keep abreast of emerging technologies to keep pace with the market demands.

To address this problem, a team of Singapore based IT professionals have developed ?Academi?. Institutes can sign a free MOU for Center of Deep Tech Excellence (CODE) to get access to free Webinars/ workshops every month, and its Institution Development Program (IDP) is aimed at enriching the knowledge of the faculty on the latest technologies and also training students to master the most advanced skillsets that the industry requires. Once the students are ready to take up jobs, Academi will help in placements through their Industry Ready Talent (IRT) portal, free of cost.

Academi is one of the brands of Hyderabad based startup, S. K. Deep Tech Pvt. Ltd., which is founded by Mr. Sesha Kishore. Speaking about the relevance of the IDP, he states, ?Most institutes lack of faculty with experience to train students in the emerging technologies, especially from the industry?s point of view. On the other hand, students often end up paying exorbitant prices while fail to master the right skill sets. We have designed the IDP that will help faculty upgrade their knowledge and train students in emerging technologies.?

According to Mr. Kishore, the IDP proposes a win-win model for all stakeholders and will make students industry-ready without forcing them to pay an excessive cost or wasting their extra time. At the same time, institutes can develop their ?Consultancy Division? with the help of technical expertise that SK Deep Tech provides free of cost to support in sustainable institution development.

The IDP has been designed with result-driven goals to be achieved, which often comprise of:

? To develop faculty up to the mark to keep pace with the market.
? Creating awareness in the students about the latest emerging technologies.
? Training students at their pace with latest available technological tools in the market.
? To give practical exposure in developing solutions to client problems with hands on industry projects.
? To make them placement ready and help them in assisting to get lucrative jobs.
? To develop Consultancy Division for the Institution for sustainable revenue generation.

Under the IDP, students will not just get the training on the latest technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Analytics, Internet of Things (IoT), Web 3.0 etc, but also get an exposure to industry projects. With their dedicated consultancy division, institute can also look forward to a novel way of revenue generation.

The IDP is going to be launched in April this year, and Academi has already signed MOUs with several reputed institutes in India. They are in talks with many other institutes and Mr. Kishore is hopeful of collaborating with quite a few numbers of institutes since the very launch of the program.
