Naukri Chaupal Seeks Investor Franchisee Partner For Its Employability Skill Training Franchise

The project on offer is a higher education institution to impart UG and PG level Technology, Business and other professional courses on contemporary and sunrise sectors like fashion, lifestyle, retail, wellness, hospitality, aviation, etc.

The fundamental difference between this institution and thousands of others across the country will be its 100% goal will be to impart a very high level of professional skills through extensive hands on training and industry exposure to enhance the employability level much higher than its competitors.

Today, any institution’s success solely dependent on the success of its students which is measured by the placements and their career growth in sue course. The student community is very well aware about these and they always run for admissions in those institutions.

It takes just a year to earn 50% of such reputation when students are offered with excellent internships and only 2 years to earn 100% of it when students are being placed.

It has been just 8 years, I have moved from overseas from a global industry career to education management in India and just like my exceptionally result oriented global career of nearly 24 years, my tenure in education has been extremely successful. I have earned a national level reputation as an academician, as an academic leader and also as a outstanding profit center head.

I am looking for investor/s who are keen to get into this high profile, high profit and extremely safe as well as recession free industry. The return on investment in this industry is far more faster than most others and its most prestigious industry too.

The franchisee partner/investor should be able to invest between Rs. 5 to 10 crore based on which the project size will differ.

The uniqueness of the proposed institution is that it will offer UG and PG level technology, management and media related courses with the specializations which are not offered by the competitors and so its students will be much more employable than its competitors in the market.

There are many other areas which will make this institution unique in India such as Teaching-Learning culture, Pedagogy, Hands on and application oriented learning, longer industry internships, Technology usage, Global curriculum, larger ratio of industry professional faculty members, in-house technology and business incubation, etc. are just to name a few.

There are millions of finer details that makes this project the best of its kind in the country and like all my previous projects my Midas touch will make a great difference with guaranteed success.

The project has an expansion plan to set up 5 more campuses across the country within 4-5 years and there will be no more expansions of campuses in India to ensure continuity and quality. There could be overseas campuses in Dubai, Manila, Bangkok and Singapore in due course.

Village Level Franchisee Partners for a patented 'Education That Works- Learning System' across India

New Delhi, 22nd Feb 2010: Srei Sahaj e-Village Limited, a subsidiary of Srei Infrastructure Finance Limited, under the umbrella of its unique partnership with the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), the largest Open University offering distance learning programs, is launching skill development vocational programs at affordable costs for the rural population of India through more than 29,000 Common Service Centres (CSCs) that Sahaj is setting up in the states of West Bengal, Bihar, Assam, Uttar Pradesh, Orissa and Tamil Nadu.

Sahaj, in partnership with IGNOU, is launching a new learning methodology called ‘Education That Works – Learning System’ (ETWLS). This is a unique Learning system for which a Global Patent has been filed (patent Application Number – 322kol2009). This invention is a self instructional computational system which functioning via Core Interpretational System controlled decisional logic gates, depends on the efficacy of user input. The invention uses a graphical user interface and creates interaction between the user and the software. Through this unique interaction process the system determines the combinations and the correctness of approaching a specific task by the user.

In this unique methodology, actual skill assessment will be done in an online mode. After a student has studied a topic, the environment for practice opens and the student actually practices what he is supposed to have learnt. He can move to the next level only if he implements his learning correctly. A total of five programs will be currently available as a part of ETWLS; a diploma in Advanced Computing and a certificate program in Java, SQL, Flash and HTML respectively.

In order to bridge the rural and urban educational gap, Srei Sahaj and IGNOU had partnered in 2009 to provide training in a blended learning environment to enable students to undertake a range of recognized qualifications.

The initiative is aimed at making up for the lack of rated educational institutes in the rural India and help students in the villages get quality skill up gradation without the hassles of relocation. The programs are also supported by Chaakri.in, Srei Sahaj’s job portal dedicated solely to the rural population. All the learners who register on the portal will be guaranteed at least one job offer. It is projected that in the next 12 months, about 80,000 youth will be trained on these courses and over a period of time, more certificate courses, diploma and degree courses will be launched.

Commenting on the launch, Chief Guest, Thiru A. Raja, Hon’ble Union Minister for Communication and Information Technology said, “I laud the initiative taken by Srei Sahaj and IGNOU of introducing the rural population to the innovative skill development programs thereby creating opportunities for the rural youth to become more skilled and technically trained which would further increase their scope of employability. The plan would greatly benefit and augment the growth and development of the socio – economic landscape of rural India.”

Commenting on the new mode of delivery of its services to rural India, Dr. Sabahat Azim, CEO, Srei-Sahaj said, “Currently, one of the biggest bottlenecks in India’s growth story is the lack of skilled manpower. In rural India, the biggest stumbling block in fighting poverty is the lack of livelihood opportunities and skill development programs available to the rural population. Therefore, the latest offering from the Srei Sahaj and IGNOU partnership is set to go beyond all commercial considerations and achieve the avowed objective of empowering rural India through the innovative courses on offer.”

About ETWLS: Education that Works – Learning System

This is a unique Learning system for which a Global Patent has been filed (patent Application Number – 322kol2009).

The invention can be referred to as a self instructional computational system which functioning via Core Interpretation System controlled decisional logic gates, depends on the efficacy of user input. The invention uses a graphical user interface and creates interaction between the user and the software. Through this unique interaction process the system determines the combination's and the correctness of approaching a specific task by the user. The interpretation attribute of the system is due to the composite effect of two mutually reinforcing Interpreters that are the fundamental control points behind the conditional signal antiport through the logic gates. The uniqueness of the system constitutes not only the decisional capacity of the system based on interpretation of user action but also the synergistic paradox of the two mutually complementing Core Interpretational Systems manifested through conditional flow of signals through the two logic gates.

In other words this is a real time self Assessment system that not only allows a student , under a distance learning program, to have hands on experience on a simulation of the subject that is being taught but also assesses the execution of the instructions given on a real time basis .

This mechanism ensures the following:

1. That the student actually understands the practical execution of the topic thereby enhancing the comprehension and retention of the matter.
2. Since the assessment is real time – the student knows immediately the accuracy of his execution.
3. Since the logic is so designed that the student cannot proceed unless the execution is absolutely accurate it ensures that the student will ultimately learn.
