On Tuesday, 27th of March, one of the providers is dong a pilot project in our college. They will do a 3 hour session for a batch of 80 students (6th semester). This will help us evaluate them as well as get student feedback. The formal program that we sponsor will be for the students who will get into the 5th semester in June 2012. The college (Prinicipal & HODs) have in principle agreed to incorporate the training program into the academic schedule. Thanks to Sivananda Raja for taking the lead in this.
