    Andhra Pradesh is in pursuit of aggressive growth plans for investments. We have established several SEZs. We are in the process of creating a $10 to $12 Billion dollar hardware and EMS manufacturing industry over the next two years. We have attracted several IT/ ITES companies into Hyderabad and even into two tier cities like Visakhapatnam. Our IT exports have more than tripled in the last three years. The employment opportunities in our state more than quadrupled over the last three years. All this is a testimony to the leadership and vision of our Honorable Chief Minister, Dr. Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy. Jawahar Knowledge Centers are started to bridge the gap between Industry and Educational Institutions. I am privileged to be present during a JKC felicitation function wherein a beedi worker’s daughter obtained placement in a major multi national company. The fate of the whole family changed just because of JKC. Likewise, lives of many rural and poor families have taken a new dimension as a result of JKCs. My heart is full of joy when I congratulate the IEG team in undertaking this noble task and more recently expanding the JKC platform to cover over 600 Degree and Engineering colleges across the state. I wish them all the best.   Dr. C. S. Rao, Advisor to Chief Minister on IT, CEO, AP Invest

    As Dom Camara, a Nobel Peace Prize nominee said, "When we are dreaming alone, it is only a dream.  When we are dreaming with others, it is the beginning of reality."

    The Special Training Program (STP) and JKC, initiated by the Government of Andhra Pradesh (GoAP) are heartwarming examples of this thinking. TCS, which was the first organisation to recruit participants of STP, is proud to be part of the program, and to witness the transformation that it has brought about amongst students.

    JKC a finishing school initiative by our AP state government, a first of its kind in the country and is a true demonstration of the governments’ goal of having a manifold increase of employability in the state to meet the demands of the industry.

    IEG and JKCs have played a very important role in shaping the careers of students and in bridging the gap which existed between the Industry expectations from the students and the actual delivery from the Institutes.

    Primarily JKCs have taken the enabling mechanisms and centers of learning to all corners of the state with a focus on raising the aspirations, in building awareness to the opportunities, in articulating expectations from students and the gaps and in also providing them avenues to bridge the gaps by way of additional training or other enabling mechanisms. It was always a pleasure to work with IEG team and to also see their dedication and commitment. M. Narasimha Rao President hysea
