SKILL COURSE PROVIDED THROUGH IEDC

Additional Skill Acquisition Programme is a part of the State Skill Development

Programme, a Joint venture of Department of Higher Education, General Education,

Labour and Local Self Government, to increase the skilled manpower in the state. ASAP

has embarked on a journey To impart training with the objective of building a platform

for the skilled personnel with Appropriate skills, in line with the requirements of the

industry. Being aware of the sweeping Changes in the labour market, ASAP aims at

creating a new generation of educated and skilled Personnel who fills this vacuum. This

year, ASAP intends to widen its network by adding more Institutions to its wing. As a

part of this process Rajadhani Institute of Engineering and Technology is all set to start

Advanced skill Development Centre for providing skill courses to our students. The

courses are

Coding Skills

Employability of engineering students is a matter of great concern now. Lack of

coding skills matching industry standards is a major factor contributing to the poor

employability of technical students. Coding is mostly taught as an academic topic,

whereas it is a skill to be acquired. To close the skill gap among engineering students in

this area ASAP in association with industry has developed a state of the art coding skills

curriculum that is based on the 10 core skills of the WHO that equips a person to fit into

any professional environment.

The life skills based coding skills curriculum not only addresses programming but also

covers fundamental aspects such as design thinking, logical thinking, programming,

community linking, design of software, project development, and industry leader’s

interaction and Hackathon. The contents for the coding skill is developed by ASAP

Curriculum. The course is organized in a structured format focusing on classroom

activities and interactive games to accelerate and improve the efficiency of teaching

learning process. Staring from developing foundation skills for coding the approach

focuses on design thinking and agile perspective of Software design.

Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning

The fast evolving world of technology is dominating work places like never

before. Fourth generation industry is already here and is placing heavy demand upon

the education system. Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Block Chains, Virtual

Reality and Cloud based computing have already become a norm in the industry rather

than an exception. There is an urgent need for the technical education system to

prepare its graduates for the future industry that demand new skill sets and

competencies.

ASAP has started an initiative to cover the skill gap of engineering graduates through

Advanced Skill Development Center. ASDC acquaints the students with various

futuristic skill courses like Artificial Intelligence, Machine learning, Data analytics etc.

Artificial Intelligence is the development of computer systems that are able to perform

tasks that would require human intelligence. Machine learning is an application of

Artificial Intelligence that gives machines the ability to learn and improve without the

help of humans or new programming.

Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning (AIM) is an emerging area of great interest

nowadays. This gives rise to an open opportunity for the engineering students,

graduates and working professionals of Kerala. It may be achieved by providing AI & ML

specific courses to them. ASAP , in collaboration with IIT Madras, IIT Palakkad and

College of Engineering Trivandrum developed the curriculum for AI & ML course. The

certification for the course will be provided by IIT Madras.

TCS iON Industry Honour Certification Programme

Need For Industry Honour Certification Programme

• Industry inputs on trending topics across sectors blended with academic

sessions is a strong need for academia

• Integrating applied knowledge and hands-on with academic knowledge will

prepare students well for the future

• Industry participation in acknowledging the student proficiency through a

certification will be a boost for

• Institution, Industry and the student The institution credence gains significantly

for offering a strong industry integration with academia.

Robotic Process Automation Developer

UiPath - Robotic Process Automation Developer About the Course Robotic Process

Automation is the technology that allows anyone today to configure computer software,

or a “robot” to emulate and integrate the actions of a human interacting within digital

systems to execute a business process. RPA robots utilize the user interface to capture

data and manipulate applications just like humans do. They interpret, trigger responses

and communicate with other systems in order to perform on a vast variety of repetitive

tasks. Only substantially better: an RPA software robot never sleeps, makes zero

mistakes and costs a lot less than an employee.

HERE Map & Location Technology.

Objective To build skilled community of technical graduates (Civil Engineering,

CS/IT) learners in the field of Maps and Location technology.HERE to provide

online/offline curriculum, workshop training, video links/mapathon initiatives for

learners / skill trainees to enrol and participate in HERE community and get up skilled

on HERE tools technology in participation with State Skill Mission and Higher Education

Dept and foster with continuous engagements towards Students enrichment.

community programme Focuses on training and empowering young talent pool in

various skills to make them job competent Promote learning through up skilling by

introducing map and location-based content on HERE tools

Google Cloud focused Career

As part of its student-focused skilling initiative, Google Cloud has launched a

student-focused Cloud Engineer Career Readiness Program. The program offers market-

ready curriculum to help students from higher education institutions achieve industry

readiness by completing the Associate Cloud Engineer Certification. The program is

being extended to a select few higher education institutions in India, including yours.

We would love to work with you to enlist and enrol students from your institution and

help them leverage the benefits of this global program.

Life skills

Life skill training equips people with the social and interpersonal skills that

enable them to cope with the demands of everyday life. The objectives of

this training are to build self-confidence, encourage critical thinking, foster

independence and help people to communicate more effectively
