Additionally, owing to the NIIT connect, the University could offer students live projects to work on. NIIT provided a Train the Trainer program for faculty and designed a customized online assessment engine especially for learners. It also held a Career Development workshop/program to enhance the capabilities of students, who were equipped with hard as well as soft skills.
