New Horizons launches retail courses in India

NEW DELHI: New Horizons India Ltd (NHIL), the JV between New Horizons Worldwide and Shriram Global Technologies has announced the launch of its retail courses in India.

The two new retail programs are aimed at giving quality education to its students. First is the ITx Grad program that spans for three years with various USPs like international internships for meritorious students and scholarships. This course has been formulated to focus on the training requirements of students from countries covered under the ITEC/SCAAP program of the Ministry of External Affairs. The institute has already enrolled its first batch of 30 foreign students from five countries such as of Zimbabwe, Namibia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, etc. in its IT certification courses at the SIBIT center in Delhi.

SIBIT is currently offering three certifications courses in areas of office productivity, network designing and web designing. As part of the six weeks program, SIBIT offers a mix of delivery methods, which gives the students the flexibility to learn via traditional instructor-led, web-based or CD-ROM based sessions. The course will specifically cater the training requirements of foreign nationals under the ITEC/SCAAP program of the Ministry of External Affairs.

Another area where New Horizons has achieved some success is its Foreign Student Study Program that has already attracted students from more than nine countries.

Sharing details on the launch of the DOEACC course by New Horizons, Sharma added, "In the Formal education sector for IT in India, some of the best programs are run by DOEAC. New Horizons is the first large international player to start offering "O" and "A" level programs in the Indian market. We are very confident that we will set new standards in this academic space. We believe that New Horizons' growing faculty requirements in India will increasingly be met through this effort."
