Skillible, in partnership with the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), has launched a groundbreaking initiative called SAMBAV (Skillible’s Academic Model for Business-To-Academic Ventures) aimed at elevating 1 million students in India. This innovative program seeks to bridge the gap between academia and industry by offering a unique blend of academic principles and practical learning experiences.
At the core of SAMBAV is a pedagogy that combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on projects designed to simulate real-world challenges. By working closely with industry experts, students will develop a deep understanding of cutting-edge technologies and their applications in the professional world.
Aligned with the Government of India’s vision to make the country a global skill hub, AICTE has placed a strong emphasis on skilling, re-skilling, and upskilling students in emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, VLSI, BI, DI, IoT, and cybersecurity. The SAMBAV initiative will complement AICTE’s efforts by providing students with practical exposure through a robust internship portal.
Ankur Goel, the Founder of Skillible, highlighted the importance of equipping students with the skills to navigate the rapidly evolving technology landscape. He emphasized that SAMBAV is paving the way for a future where technical education goes beyond traditional boundaries, empowering students to drive innovation and progress.
Chandrasekhar Buddha, Chief Coordinating Officer at AICTE, expressed AICTE’s commitment to nurturing a future-ready workforce through collaborations like SAMBAV. The program offers a range of features, including an industry-aligned curriculum, project-based learning, virtual internships, interactive sessions, and continuous evaluation to ensure students are equipped with the skills demanded by modern tech firms.
Upon successful completion of the program, participants will receive a joint certification from Skillible and AICTE, showcasing their industry readiness and technical proficiency. SAMBAV will initially focus on specializations in Software Development, AI, Cybersecurity, and Salesforce Development, with plans to expand into other high-demand tech domains in the future.
Through the SAMBAV program, Skillible aims to upskill and reskill 1 million students and professionals in new-age technologies, preparing them for the challenges of the modern tech landscape.
