| | SEPTEMBER 20224The workplace dynamics are changing in shut-eye time. Given the cut-throat competition across industries, we can't really blame employers for expecting new candidates to be smart generalists--go-getters producing outcomes beyond their technical or theoretical competence. But who are we kidding; the traditional higher education systems in the country have their own limitations for equipping students for such an elite level of competition. This predicament makes supplementary education platforms promoting increased agility and learning aptitude all the more important. They enable college students and entry-level candidates to equip themselves with technical skills such as Salesforce, Data Analytics, Cloud Computing, AI/ML, and much more, which are imperative for their success with any organization. However, the biggest challenge for institutes in India is that they lack the infrastructure required to crack this, not to mention that the content for this space is scattered and highly westernized. The pandemic, in fact, showed them a way to accomplish this, thanks to the explosion of online education. The IITs across India have always been at the forefront of promoting contemporary education models and curriculums, and it is no different this time. Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (IIT Guwahati) is a case in point. IIT Guwahati recently joined hands with Coursera--a U.S.-based massive open online courses provider-- to offer three new postgraduate certificate programs. The programs include Cloud Computing Applications, Deep Learning for Computer Vision & XR, and UX Design & HCI. No wonder it is the breeding ground of the leaders of the tech-ade. We dedicate this special issue to the alumni of IIT Guwahati, who make the institute proud every day.
