The demand for skilled professionals has been on the rise in recent years, but the supply of qualified candidates has not been able to keep up. To bridge this gap, Sri Padmavati Mahila Visvavidyalayam (SPMVV), one of India’s top-ranking institutions, has partnered with TeamLease EdTech, India’s leading Learning and Employability solution company, to launch their Online and Degree Apprenticeship programmes, integrating degrees with hands-on work experience.
The Degree Apprenticeship Programme provides students with a unique opportunity to acquire a degree while simultaneously gaining valuable real-world work experience. This blend of theoretical knowledge and practical exposure ensures that graduates are well-equipped with the skills required by today’s job market. Students enrolled in the programme will benefit from a rich curriculum, expert faculty, and direct access to real-world scenarios, which will drastically elevate their employability.
Speaking about the development, Prof Depuru Bharathi, Vice-Chancellor of SPMVV, said:
“In today’s ever-evolving world, it is essential for our young women to learn and experience the nuances of their chosen fields. This collaboration is a testament to our commitment towards the holistic development of our students.”
Sri Padmavati Mahila Visvavidyalayam is dedicated to emancipating women through knowledge and empowerment, giving them the opportunity to become involved in various occupations, and establishing a progressive, egalitarian society. The University offers numerous professional programmes, including Teacher Education, one of the pioneering Departments in the University.
Shantanu Rooj, Founder & CEO of TeamLease EdTech, commented:
“Our collaboration with SPMVV is aimed at bridging the gap between academia and industry. We are eager to mould the next generation of women leaders by leveraging the combined strength of theoretical knowledge and on-ground exposure.”
TeamLease EdTech provides universities with the tools to launch, run, and manage their own Online/ODL programmes, and improve the employability of their students. The platform allows employers to build talent supply chains through apprenticeship programmes and increase employee productivity. TL EdTech’s cloud-hosted, mobile-first, managed services platform offers a wide range of services – enrollment, learning, upskilling, apprenticeships, student support and assessment – to help customers enhance access and learning outcomes.
In conclusion, the collaboration between SPMVV and TeamLease EdTech is an important step forward in ensuring the holistic development of students and providing them with the skills they need to succeed in the job market. Teachers can also benefit from this partnership, as they are able to provide their students with a unique opportunity to gain valuable work experience and practical skills that will help them in their future careers.
