Jaipur : Alumni of the six Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs), the country’s premier business schools, came forward Sunday with a slew of customised courses here to enhance the graduates’ prospects of employment.
The initiative of a group of 10 alumni, Elements Akademia, will offer high-quality job-oriented courses that are tailor-made to suit the human resource requirement of companies in outsourcing, retailing, insurance and banking fields.
The group earlier launched the initiative in Lucknow and Bhopal.
The six-month part-time courses broadly include modules on business communication, managerial effectiveness, grooming and IT. The students who complete the course would get a certificate from the Mumbai-based K.J. Somaiya Business School.
There is also a merit-cum-means scholarship, sponsored by the IIM alumni, for students with a monthly family income of less than Rs.6,000.
