Additionally, two MoUs were signed with universities, KR Mangalam University (Gurgaon) & Sharda University (Noida).

Highlighting collaborative efforts with three prominent Sector Skill Councils, the event aimed to bridge the gap between academia and industry. Emphasising the significance of global career enhancement certification programmes, it seeks to create a pathway for individuals to acquire internationally recognised skills aligned with industry-specific needs.
“Our event has opened doors for aspiring students and professionals aiming for fulfilling careers in Germany. We are thrilled to have established a platform that bridges the gap between raw talent and boundless opportunities, all while nurturing Indo-German partnerships. The event aims to showcase our collaboration with sector skill councils, emphasising the joint certification opportunities available through our virtual certification programmes. As per NEP 2020, which states that 40 per cent of skill courses can be incorporated into the curriculum by universities, we are collaborating with Indian universities. German Varsity also offers other programmes like internships, apprenticeships, semester exchanges, dual-degree programmes, master’s courses, bachelor courses, etc.”, Raj Vangapandu, President, German Varsity, said.
