Dear IEEE Student members,
You may be aware that recently, the IEEE Hyderabad section, Education Society and the SAC have jointly launched a program named 'Skill Connect’. This program is aimed about providing Employability skills to the 3rd Year Engineering Students. "Employability" comes when we have a good grip on what the employer wants from us (i.e) ‘ability to do’.
We build employability skills or 'competence to do' by providing competence in technical topics and by getting each of you to build specific applications that are similar to what companies want. Later we provide, to as many as possible, internship with various Small and Medium Enterprises(SMEs). This year the SMEs we have are those that deal with Embedded software, those that build mobile research programs, those who use it for Healthcare industry and so on.
The program provides employable skills only and does not promise employment. Please note this.
We have already started this in some colleges with the College Managements and the IEEE Branch Counsellors. However, in order to make this available to all the students interested and who are part of IEEE student branches, we are sending this invitation to all of you. All of you who are interested in putting in the effort and doing this training to get employable skills, are advised to join this. Our brochure for this is attached.
Please respond to this mail along with the Response form filled in.
The program is aligned with college and University calendar
