Today one requires exposure to various technologies and specialization in minimum one technology to be successful in software industry and have a continued growth path.

Even though there are plenty of job opportunities, the competition is stiff. Hence one needs to prepare better from early on to grab the opportune moment during the campus recruitment.
 
Though, Engineering degree is one of the basic qualifications for any such job, the degree itself does not guarantee the same. The facts of Engineering academics like outdated curriculum, lack of infrastructure in colleges, limited teaching capabilities etc. are only some of the stumbling blocks.

Other personal shortcomings like not being able to cope up with the curriculum or being in a non-IT stream also do not facilitate realization of the aspiration of a job in the Information Technology sector, which is the dream of an Engineering student from any stream.

Thus originates the need for a training program which can bridge all these gaps while the student is pursuing his/her college education and enable him/her to get the job of choice in the IT industry the moment he/she graduates and make him doubly qualified.

NIIT’s answer to all these issues is “Integrated ANIIT Program (IAE)” which is designed to:

• Provide Engineering students skills in latest technologies
  
• Help students overcome the problems posed by outdated curriculum, lack of infrastructure in colleges, limited teaching capabilities etc.
  
• Provides a platform for non IT Engineers to be at par with the IT Engineers and be a part of the consideration set of the employers during the campus placements.
  
• Provide industry-oriented skills like soft skills, personality development, live projects etc.
  
• Provide a placement oriented program which can be finished along with the college

The “Integrated ANIIT Program (IAE)” has every potential to be the training program which every Engineering student will aspires to before he/she thinks of a technology job.
