EdgeVarsity signs MoU with German based Drilling School of Celle
and ATCC to be its certification partners!
- EdgeVarsity, the education technology company based in Bengaluru has now signed up MoUs with the Drilling College Celle, a German institute specialized in training engineers and supervisors for Oil and Gas industry and ATCC , an EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency)approved Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Training Organization
- Aims to expand operations to other developing economies apart from India by 2022
5th January 2021 : At a time, when we consider gaining hands-on experiences from the campuses beyond academics, EdgeVarsity, the education technology company based in Bengaluru, collaborates with two international institutes,specialized in their fields to provide the best exposure to their students. It recently signed MoUs with The Drilling College Celle, the German institute Specialized in training engineers and supervisors for the Oil and Gas industry and ATCC, an EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency) approved training institution which is authorized to provide Aircraft Maintenance Engineering training programme. Henceforth they will be certification partners for the courses offered by EdgeVarsity.
Speaking on this occasion, Dr Udo Grossmann, Managing Director of the Drilling College Celle said: Our trainers come from industry with first-hand experience and an average of 25 years’ experience. We focus on helping people develop lifelong careers in the Oil and Gas Industry through EdgeVarsity now in Asia. Drilling Colleges’ straining is oriented towards new and relevant technical developments in deep drilling technology and oil and gas production technology as well as current professional applications and problems by means of modern workstations, the use of modern simulation software and technical equipment components in the original.
Mr Wladmemar Becker, Managing Director of ATCC while signing this MoU said, “ATCC is an EASA approved training organization that offers classroom-based training in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering in various countries. We are really excited to collaborate with EdgeVarsity which focuses on providing such skilling programme to students across the globe through their EdTech platform”
EdgeVarsity, focuses on enhancing the employability of youngsters by bridging the widening gap that exists between University curriculum and industrial requirements. The institution provides a specialized Oil and Gas programme for Mechanical Engineers and Aviation Programme for engineers from Mechanical, Electrical, Aeronautical and Electronics engineering branches.Programmes offered by EdgeVarsity demands 130 to 140 hrs of learning effort from the students. There is no specific batch start day. Students can start whenever they want as it is a self-paced training programme which can be accessed from anywhere in the world,” adds Sekharan Menon
Currently, in India, more than 10 lakhs engineering graduates are coming out from campuses every year. “Nearly 60 percentage of them stay either unemployed or underemployed. Major reason for this is the gap that exists between theoretical aspects covered as part of Engineering Curriculum and the expectation of the industry. EdgeVarsity’s programmes are created in such a way that these programmes clearly bridge the gap,” Sekharan explains.
