Hyderabad:
12th February, 2025: In line with Adani Group Chairman Gautam
Adani’s social philosophy सेवा साधना है, सेवा प्रार्थना है और सेवा ही परमात्मा है,
the Adani Group has partnered with ITE Education Services (ITEES) of Singapore
to build a skilled talent pipeline for serving the needs of industries,
including Green Energy, Manufacturing, Hi-tech, Project Excellence and
Industrial Design. To build this talent pool of industry-ready workforce, the Adani family will donate over INR 2,000 Cr for establishing
internationally benchmarked schools of excellence.
Each
of these finishing schools, called Adani Global Skills Academy, will select
students from technical and vocational education backgrounds in India aligned
to their industry and role aspiration. Once these students have been certified
in their chosen field of study, they will be provided employment within the
Adani Group as well as the broader industry, depending on their role and field
of training. This will ensure that trained professionals are first-day first-hour
industry ready and benchmarked to global standards of excellence.
In
its initial phase, the program will prioritize establishing the world’s largest
finishing school for technical training in Mundra, Gujarat, aiming to skill
over 25,000 learners annually for a wide range of industry and service roles. These
learners would be fresh graduates and diploma holders with vocational and
technical qualifications from ITIs or Polytechnics, and would be selected for
an intensive bootcamp experience within the schools.
The
Adani Global Skills Academy will be the largest of its kind in the world and
provide an immersive learning experience, with innovation centers and AI-based
simulators combined with mixed reality based learning, within a fully
residential facility for students and faculty.
To
ensure a high-quality learning experience, Adani is partnering with ITEES
Singapore, a world leader in providing career oriented technical and vocational
training and a key developer of national occupational skills certification and
standards.
ITEES
Singapore will serve as a knowledge partner towards creating a continuous
feeder for this technically qualified and industry-ready talent. The areas of
collaboration will include creating a best-in-class-learning experience that
leverages world class infrastructure, immersive technical content and roping in
leading faculty with deep expertise across new-age industries.
“This
partnership is critical to our initiative as a Group to build high-level
technical talent and is in line with our commitment towards the Make-in-India
focus across our portfolio. With deep engagement across academic quality
assurance, certification-led learning pathways, faculty and student exchange
programs and leadership development, this partnership will embed the best of application-led
learning to support industries across sectors, thus contributing to Viksit
Bharat,” said Mr Robin Bhowmik, CEO of Adani Skills & Education.
“ITEES
is pleased to collaborate with Adani to share ITE's expertise and knowledge in
skills education and training. Through this meaningful partnership, ITEES aims
to enhance skill development and create lasting impact by transforming
education and lives,” said Mr Suresh Natarajan, CEO for ITEES, Singapore.
Over
the years, ITEES has received many accolades for its trailblazing
transformation in technical education, including being the first education
institution to win the Singapore Quality award with special commendation in
2011.
