Imarticus Learning, an ed-tech platform, has launched a new opportunity for young entrepreneurs in India to train students and make them employable called the ImarticusEdtech Entrepreneur. The new program aims to empower emerging entrepreneurs in tier-II and tier-III cities to build their own businesses with Imarticus Learning.
With zero royalty fees and low investment in the ed-tech segment, the new program seeks to provide ROI (return on investment) within 6 months and positive cash flow in the first year. The new vertical will have all job-assured programs, curated with industry experts and certification courses from premier institutes like the Indian Institute of Technology (IITs) and the Indian Institute of Management (IIMs).
Increased digital penetration coupled with the current industry scenarios has made upskilling and learning new skills an important aspect of any job. The upskilling trend is equally prominent in tier-II and III cities, said the company, adding that this initiative will not only help in building entrepreneurship in India but will also address the need for quality education in tier-II and III cities with consistent quality education access.
The new vertical will reportedly have courses in all the domains, including finance, analytics, technology, marketing and management with all job-assured programs and certificate courses, including CIBOP, PGA, FSD, PGBAF, CMA and ACCA.
The program is eligible for all young entrepreneurs with a minimum experience of two years in the local market. The entrepreneurs associated with the new vertical will receive continued support for branding, sales, staffing and marketing. For students, Imarticus Learning’s Edtech Entrepreneur vertical will help them upskill with the job-assured and certification programs.
“We are pleased to launch our latest vertical, ImarticusEdtech Entrepreneur, which is aimed at empowering budding entrepreneurs and at upskilling students, particularly in tier-II and tier-III cities. This time, we’ve taken our efforts a step further to allow emerging entrepreneurs to set up their own businesses. We are confident that this program will help us nurture more entrepreneurs and contribute to India’s growing startup ecosystem,” observed Nikhil Barshikar, founder and managing director, Imarticus Learning.
