Aptech Ltd has tied-up with TRRAIN Foundation. The collaboration will help people working in the retail sector develop their skills in retail management and effective communication. The collaboration aims at training 20,000 people in three years in major cities like Mumbai, Bengaluru, Delhi, and Hyderabad.
According to B S Nagesh, Founder, TRRAIN, “We believe our tie–up with Aptech will enable us in upgrading lives of people in retail both at work and home. Skill development is a key focus area for us and this collaboration will deliver very tangible results.”
In this venture, Aptech will be providing content, training and the academic support processes to run the training program, while TRRAIN will provide the infrastructure required (be it mobile education centres or classrooms) at retail dominant locations like malls and high streets to conduct these programs.
On the joint venture Ninad Karpe, CEO and MD Aptech Ltd said, “Aptech, with this new engagement, would be entering the training segment in the retail sector. We have designed a course which is interactive in nature and coupled with conventional learning.”
There are long terms plans to leverage the TRRAIN-Aptech training model for a pan-India rollout of retail training using containers as well as launch of the content at Aptech centres.
