Tamil Nadu-headquartered IT company Zoho has started two training schools in
kumbakonam district and Nellai
district as part of its training program Zoho Schools of Learning. Zoho's training program Zoho
school of Learning has completed 20 years. As part of this, the company has set up new training schools in two cities in
tamil Nadu. It has established its training schools in two places, one in
kumbakonam and one in the Nellai district. Through these training schools, Zoho will provide training in various fields including information
technology to young
students in tier-II and tier-III cities. In 2005, Zoho launched the Zoho Schools of Learning program. It started functioning as a training center with six
students and two
teachers who can provide direct vocational training as an alternative to
college education.
Under the Zoho Schools of Learning program,
students who have completed class XII can study for two years. They will get an internship opportunity at Zoho for one year during these two years. Zoho says that this is an attempt to bridge the skill gap by providing direct technical training to
students in tier-II and tier-III cities. Not only that,
students who join this program do not pay any training fees, but they are also given incentives. So
students can focus on their studies without any financial worries. After completing the training, you can get a job. More than 2000
students have been trained in this program. Only 20
students are selected and enrolled in it every year.
Most of them are now employees of Zoho. Zoho Schools of Learning, which was started as a pilot project with six
students, has now become an alternative
education option desired by
students across the country, said
rajendran Dandapani, Technical
director and Head of the training
school at Soho. Currently, training campuses are operating in
chennai and Tenkasi. To mark the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the training
school, new training schools have been established in the Nellai
district and in Kumbakonam. It has been reported that 15 to 20
students will be trained here initially.
rajendran Dandapani said that several
students who completed their studies in this training
school are currently holding leadership positions in the Zoho company and have completed various new projects.
