Nachiketas is a Post Graduate in Automotive & Computer Engineering from Lawrence TechnologicalUniversity, Michigan, USA. He completed his graduation in the field of Computer Engineering from MITPune.

Rare is to born as a human.

Rarer is to be endowed with good health and wellness.

If this becomes possible, still rarer is to get good education and obtain thinking ability.

If someone gets all these, then rarest is dedicating his entire life to the enquiry and experiments of synthesis ofScience and spirituality.

When someone starts living such a selfless illumining life and understands the nature of ultimate reality then, notonly the angels come to welcome him to the portals of heaven but the god himself takes him into his own arms andmerges his self into his own self.

This is self realization!

This is enlightenment.

This is liberation.

Knowledge is the biggest value we add to our students.

Excellent Trainers : Our Biggest Asset

We believe that it is only the appropriate application of clear sound knowledge and wisdom that will help students to facethe challenges of IT industry confidently. We invite you to talk to any of our DAC/PreDAC students to verify our trainingstandards.

Following are some of the highlights of our training methodology:

Contrary to common belief, we do believe in the sincerity and maturity of every student and hence provide completefreedom during lecture as well as labs to ask doubts, interact with trainer intensely. After every conceptual topic, weprovide couple of minutes to all students to discuss it within themselves. We encourage dialog, debate, discussion,agreement and dis-agreements to make learning more profound and meaningful.

We strongly believe that once the fundamental concepts of programming, database and web technology are crystalclear, understanding of advanced modules like .Net and Java becomes quite simple.

Considering the hectic schedule of DAC course, it becomes difficult for students to read the reference books. Weaddress this problem by providing our own course material that is customized to focus mainly on the structure andcontent of DAC course. This is found to be extremely helpful in managing the vast course content effectively.

Technology knowledge is incomplete without its implementation in labs. For every subject, we have a list ofindividual assignments that help you practice all concepts independently. We also have a mini-project for eachmodule that gets developed gradually till the end of that module with every session adding new feature to it. Thisgives students a real insight into application of knowledge for addressing real life problems.

We complete the training of each module with end module test. Results of these tests are used for arranging revisionsessions or individual counseling, if needed.

1. Greater the freedom, better the results:

2. Primary focus on conceptual understanding of subject

3. Our own course material designed specifically for DAC course

4. Practical implementation in labs through assignments and mini-projects for all subjects

5. Verification of Knowledge transferred to students through frequent online tests and mock interviews

We have with us one of the most distinguished and highly competent team of trainers that are respected in academics aswell as software industry for their depth of knowledge and vast experience.

Our Training Methodology

Placement oriented trainings :

Aptitude tests are mainly conducted to assess intelligence and knowledge. It is part of thepsychometric tests conducted before hiring a candidate. It helps the companies to assesscandidates work related perceptions, judgment and reasoning, How quickly candidatesare able to arrive at the correct answer under timed conditions, Interpreting ability of thecandidates along with computation & estimation ability with high order analysis & criticalreasoning.

To get, and keep, a job you typically need a repertoire of technical skills. While your technical skills may get your foot in thedoor, your people skills are what open most of the doors to come in future.

Now a days companies are finding that the candidates do not have the necessaryskills to make the transition from a technical or functional specialist to a team leader,supervisor or manager. Companies in the IT, BPO, KPO industries have found thattheir people need soft skills to work effectively in cross-functional or project teamsenvironment. These people skills are more critical than ever as organizations struggleto find meaningful ways to remain competitive and be productive. Developing theseskills is very important and does matter! a lot!
