Dassault Systèmes has announced its partnership with Skill-Lync to upskill over 10,000 engineering students and professionals annually for co-branded talent transformation programmes.

The collaboration aims to embed industry leading practices into the engineering curriculums by providing students with project-based learning modules, frugal engineering practices, as well as trainings and certifications in the latest, groundbreaking technologies. Dassault Systèmes will also train Skill-Lync support engineers with more than 10 years of experience, to help them in imparting cutting edge education to the students. The collaboration is focused on improving graduate employability, bridging the gap between industry and academia and empowering the workforce of the future.

In rhythm with Government of India’s New Education Policy (NEP), Skill-Lync is actively partnering with educational institutions to provide curriculum integration across domains for students starting from their second year in college.

The partnership will cover Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform along with courses on its brand applications including CATIA, DELMIA, SIMULIA, SOLIDWORKS, and ENOVIA. The content development for the coursework will involve inputs from various industry leaders. Dassault Systèmes will further facilitate interaction with the industry to ensure Skill-Lync invests in building the right content.

The programs are focused on giving experiential learning to the students and professionals in different industries. One of the many highlights of the program is the first hand experience of building electric vehicles (EV) from scratch along with masterclass videos visually presenting the EV building process for students interested in polishing their skills in the automotive industry.

“Nurturing the workforce of the future is one of our key focus areas in India and we are glad to partner with Skill-Lync in this journey. Preparing the students and young professionals by skilling them in emerging technologies will make them instrumental in boosting the economic growth and lead to a wider adoption of digitalization across industries. Real-life simulation scenarios can enhance the experience thinking capabilities of students and help them develop deep expertise that complements their career growth,” said Deepak NG, Managing Director India, Dassault Systèmes.
