Nokia, TSSC open 5G skill development center in India
As 5G rolls out rapidly across the country, Nokia announced the establishment of a 5G skill development center in Gujarat in collaboration with the Telecom Sector Skill Council (TSSC) and Kaushalya-The Skill University. The Centre of Excellence (CoE) at ITI Kubernagar is setting up a skill Lab to train candidates in 5G technology skills with the aim of providing placement offers within 4-6 weeks of course completion to at least 70 percent of learners, the company said in a statement.
About 300 such candidates will benefit from the program in the first year of the project. “Nokia is at the forefront of leading innovation in telecom technologies, and we are investing in developing a pool of technically skilled manpower to help build the 5G ecosystem,” said Amit Marwah, CMO of Nokia India. The company said that it will be investing in infrastructure, equipment and training for the five labs in the CoE as part of its India corporate social responsibility (CSR) program.
“The unveiling of our state-of-the-art CoE with 5G, IoT, advanced security surveillance, line assembler and advanced mobile repair labs represents a significant milestone in our organization's commitment to skilling youth of India in emerging telecom job roles,” said Arvind Bali, CEO, TSSC. The 5G skill development center was inaugurated by the state Cabinet Minister for Labour and Employment, Balvantsinh Rajput.
