Meander Training and Multani Mal Modi College Sign MoU to Build Career-Ready Talent in Chandigarh Tricity

Industries today are evolving faster than traditional education systems can adapt. Technology, automation, and digital transformation have reshaped the expectations of employers globally. Today’s workforce must demonstrate not just theoretical understanding, but practical execution, problem-solving ability, confidence, and professional readiness. Degrees alone are no longer enough. Students need exposure, experience, and skill depth.

Recognizing this shift, Meander Training and Multani Mal Modi College Patiala have officially signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to align education with employability. The initiative introduces industry-oriented learning pathways, structured project-based training, certification tracks, and end-to-end placement preparation for students across Punjab and the Chandigarh Tricity region.

This collaboration represents a meaningful transition from passive classroom learning to execution-driven, outcome-focused education. Through this partnership, learners will gain access to the tools, environments, and professional ecosystems that reflect real work settings - ensuring they become industry-ready before graduation.

A Milestone Moment: The Pre-Placement Talk at Multani Mal Modi College

Following the formal MoU signing, the partnership was introduced through an on-campus Pre-Placement Talk held at Multani Mal Modi College Patiala. The interactive session brought together students, faculty, and training experts to establish clarity on how the collaboration will support student career growth.

During the session, students explored:

  • Modern skill pathways aligned with current industry hiring trends
  • The role of hands-on projects in developing employability
  • Career opportunities in emerging technology domains such as software development, AI, cloud, cybersecurity, and data
  • Internship and placement structures and expectations
  • The importance of portfolio building for global job applications
  • How learners from Chandigarh Tricity, Patiala, and surrounding areas can secure real tech careers

The message delivered was clear: placement success is not accidental - it is a process built through capability, preparation, consistency, and industry exposure.

The Pre-Placement Talk served as the starting point for this long-term collaboration - setting expectations, establishing direction, and inspiring students to pursue skill-based career preparation seriously.

Leadership Behind the Vision

A key force shaping this partnership is Dr. Sandeep Srivastava, who has spent years building education-to-industry alignment models for Meander Training. He believes the future belongs to those who learn by doing - not memorizing.

“A degree may open the door, but skills decide whether you stay there.”

Under his leadership, Meander Training follows a modern training framework that includes:

  • Real industry tools (GitHub, Postman, Firebase, React, SQL, VS Code, Figma, AI copilots, etc.)
  • Team-based projects reflecting real IT workplace culture
  • Agile sprint execution, stand-ups, and code review systems
  • Continuous performance feedback instead of one-time evaluations
  • Professional communication, documentation, and presentation practice
  • Resume, LinkedIn, portfolio, and GitHub optimization for placements

This structured delivery ensures students develop the skillset, mindset, and discipline needed to contribute meaningfully in internships and full-time roles.

How Students Benefit From This Partnership

The training model focuses on measurable learning outcomes rather than traditional instructional hours. Students under this collaboration gain access to:

Learning Focus Outcome
Skill-Based Training Ability to execute tasks using real industry technologies
Project-Driven Learning Creation of portfolio assets demonstrating practical capability
Certifications Credentials aligned to global employer standards
Career Readiness Training Confidence in interviews, communication, and workplace professionalism
Internship & Placement Support Internship opportunities, job matching, and industry mentorship

This approach gives students clarity instead of confusion, direction instead of uncertainty, and a career roadmap instead of guesswork.

Strengthening the Regional Talent Pipeline

The collaboration aims to uplift the employability standards across the Chandigarh Tricity and Punjab region, including:

  • Chandigarh
  • Mohali
  • Panchkula
  • Patiala
  • Rajpura
  • Kharar
  • Ambala
  • Zirakpur
  • Fatehgarh Sahib
  • Ludhiana
  • Sangrur

Historically, many students from this region relocated to Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, or Gurgaon to access quality tech-based training. This partnership changes that landscape. For the first time, industry-aligned learning of this scale is being delivered locally, eliminating geographical barriers and financial challenges that often prevent students from accessing meaningful skill development.

A Structured Pathway From Learning to Earning

The student journey under this program follows a clear, phased progression:

  • Foundation: Understanding core concepts and tools
  • Execution: Building skills through guided practice
  • Specialization: Choosing a focused career track (AI, App Development, Web, Cybersecurity, Data, Cloud, QA)
  • Team Simulation: Working in teams using agile methods, stand-ups, and documentation
  • Placement Preparation: Resume, GitHub, LinkedIn refinement, mock interviews, aptitude readiness
  • Internships & Job Matching: Real-world entry point into the workforce

This structure significantly reduces the time between graduation and employability  a gap that affects thousands of graduates every year.

Beyond Qualifications - Building Confidence, Identity, and Capability

The impact of this MoU goes beyond teaching software skills. It focuses on developing:

  • Professional confidence
  • Clear and effective communication
  • Analytical thinking and problem-solving
  • Ethical digital behavior and responsibility
  • Workplace discipline and ownership
  • A growth mindset and lifelong learning attitude

The initiative is shaped with a long-term view: to empower young learners to become employable, confident, adaptable, and future-ready professionals.

For Multani Mal Modi College, the partnership reinforces its reputation as one of the region’s progressive institutions  prioritizing student futures and aligning with modern industry expectations. For Meander Training, it strengthens the mission of transforming regional education systems by bringing industry closer to classrooms.
