A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between Esri India and Rajasthan Centre of Advanced Technology (R-CAT) to give young people access to advanced GIS technology learning opportunities.
R-CAT’s goal is to help young professionals and students reach their full potential. As a result, it has collaborated with several top technology firms, such as Esri India, to create and offer highly recognized degree programs in cutting-edge technologies that are recognized across the world.
With the help of these courses, professionals and students can become highly skilled in information technology, innovate, progress their careers, and have a significant impact on the digital transformation of organizations, government agencies, and society at large.
The collaboration between R-CAT and Esri India makes it possible to develop and offer certificate programs and courses in the widely recognized ArcGIS technology.
As the training partner for R-CAT, Esri India will provide pre-admissions counseling, training, and placement assistance for a subset of selected students in GIS courses during the first year of the program. For chosen individuals, Esri India will further provide globally recognized certifications.
Inderjeet Singh, Commissioner, IT&C and Managing Director, R-CAT said, “Through this partnership with Esri India, we aim to equip our students with practical skills in geospatial technologies that are directly applicable in today’s environment. The certifications will empower the learners to be well-prepared for the competitive job market. Together, we will cultivate a learning environment that fosters innovation, collaboration, and a deep understanding of cutting-edge technology, ultimately empowering our students to become leaders and change-makers through the use of GIS.”
Agendra Kumar, Managing Director, Esri India said, “Training in GIS equips students with a versatile skillset that is highly valued in the modern world. Through our association with R-CAT, we are glad to take another step toward inculcating the knowledge and skills in students to tackle complex challenges, contribute to sustainable development, and drive technological and economic growth. We are excited to create avenues for the state’s youth to build their GIS capabilities and be future-ready. This training is not only vital for individual career prospects but also for the advancement of society.”
This collaboration between R-CAT and Esri India is expected to raise the bar for professional GIS education and provide students with new career opportunities. The partnership represents a common goal to give people access to state-of-the-art, industry-relevant education.
