Veranda Learning Solutions Limited, a publicly traded education technology company, has signed an MoA with the Tamil Nadu Skill Development Corporation (TNSDC) to assist in the implementation of the Naan Mudhalvan scheme, which aims to provide students in government colleges with skill development and career guidance.

Through this collaboration, Veranda will not only assist students from all disciplines to obtain industry-specific skills and become more job-ready, but it will also help broaden its own 'No Student Left Behind' objective.

Veranda Learning has received 61,101 registrations for these free courses under the Naan Mudhalvan initiative after signing an MoA (Memorandum of Agreement) with the Tamil Nadu government on August 29.

This initiative, which was introduced on March 1 by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin, intends to establish a strong partnership between business and educational institutions in the state. The Tamil Nadu government hopes to upskill 10 lakh youth across the state through this initiative each year.

Veranda Learning Solutions received 61,101 registrations, with 41,881 students choosing Veranda's foundation courses (non-mandatory courses such as App Development, Banking Foundation, CA Foundation, Data Science, DevOps, IAS Foundation, Java and Programming, Railway Foundation, SSC Foundation, and TNPSC Foundation).

The remaining 19,220 students have registered in Cloud Computing and Big Data Analytics as required courses. Each obligatory course will include 9,610 students and will be led by experienced instructors.

Furthermore, of the different courses Veranda Learning is offering under the initiative, App Development has emerged as a top option for students at government colleges, with 33.2% of the 61,101 students enrolling in it. The TNPSC Foundation course is second on the list, with 6286 students (about 10%) enrolling.
