Teaching in the digital age is no easy task. That’s why the Consortium for Technical Education (CTE) and the Andhra Pradesh Information Technology Academy (APITA) have partnered up to help educators stay on top of the latest developments in the world of educational technology.
Through this Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), the two organizations are collaborating to identify learning gaps and provide online training courses, virtual and in-person seminars, and other resources to help faculty and students develop essential technological skills.

Alagarsamy, the Director of CTE, said: “This partnership signifies a pivotal moment in cultivating an environment that nurtures advanced technological prowess and fosters expertise in emerging fields. We aim to equip students and faculty with the tools and knowledge to succeed in the rapidly evolving digital landscape.”
CTE and APITA are focused on bridging the gap between academia and industry, propelling research, and fostering an environment in which advanced technological education can create new verticals and drive innovation. The two organizations are offering video-based training courses, instructor-led training programs, certification programs, seminars/webinars led by domain experts, international workshops, hands-on training, and train-the-trainer programs (Faculty Development Programs).
Ramakotti Reddy, Chief Executive Officer of APITA, said: “This collaboration underscores APITA’s commitment to enhancing technological capabilities and offering industry-relevant courses. Together, we will equip students with cutting-edge knowledge and practical skills essential for thriving in the digital era.”
