NIIT Limited — Updates, 17-01-2025: Press Release

NIIT Limited has launched the 'Career Edge Scholarship' aimed at empowering final-year engineering students. This merit-based initiative addresses the growing need for employability by enabling students to enroll in NIIT’s flagship Full-Stack Development with GenAI Honours Program. The total program fee is Rs. 1,10,000 + GST, but eligible students will only need to pay Rs. 10,000 + GST, with scholarships of up to 100% available based on academic performance. Registrations are open from January 14 to January 31, 2025, and classes are to commence by February 28, 2025. The program spans 34 weeks, offering comprehensive skills training in software engineering, including significant hands-on coding experience. This strategic move not only supports students in bolstering their job readiness but also aligns with NIIT's commitment to addressing skill gaps in the technology sector. A positive outlook surrounds this initiative, given NIIT's successful track record of placing 100% of eligible learners in prior years.
