Oracle has partnered with the Tamil Nadu Skill Development Corporation (TNSDC) to launch a specialised skills development program aimed at empowering over 200,000 students in the state with the latest IT skills. 

This collaboration falls under Tamil Nadu’s ambitious skill enhancement initiative, Naan Mudhalvan, which focuses on equipping youth with employment-linked training in cutting-edge technologies.

The program, launched in 2024, targets students across various educational backgrounds, including engineering, arts, and science streams, from more than 900 colleges statewide. 

These students will receive training and certification in modern technologies such as Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), data science, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and blockchain.

“Tamil Nadu, with its burgeoning youth population, is a priority state for us. Through Naan Mudhalvan, we aim to provide a platform for youth to enhance their career prospects,” said  Tmt J. Innocent Divya, managing director of TNSDC. 

The initiative, already reaching 1.3 million students, aims to leverage Oracle’s expertise to train an additional 200,000 students, opening doors to promising career opportunities.

The training curriculum, integrated into college curricula, will be delivered by experienced educators and industry professionals. Digital learning modules via Oracle MyLearn, the company’s robust training platform, will complement on-campus instruction. 

This blended approach ensures comprehensive learning in cloud computing and related domains, tailored to individual learning levels and career aspirations.

Shailender Kumar, senior vice president and regional managing director of Oracle India and NetSuite JAPAC, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration. “Oracle’s Skills Development Initiative aligns with the Indian government’s digital economy vision. Our certification programs are industry-recognized, enhancing employability and stability for tech professionals,” he said.

Oracle University, renowned for its technology training and certification programs, has already impacted over 3.1 million certified professionals globally.
