Tata Motors helps 3,400 students enrol in top engg, medical institutes

ENABLE is a digitally-enabled remote learning initiative launched by Tata Motors which prepares talented Class 11 and 12 students studying across 552 JNVs to take JEE and NEET exams. 

Tata Motors has helped 3,400 students enrol in India’s top engineering and medical schools, 40 per cent of which have been women. Tata Motors launched the engineering and NEET (National Eligibility Entrance Test) admission bridge accelerated learning engagement initiative—ENABLE in January 2021 in association with the Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti (NVS), Avanti Fellows and Ex-Navodayan Foundation.  

ENABLE is a digitally-enabled remote learning initiative that prepares talented Class 11 and 12 students studying across 552 Jawahar Navodalaya Vidyalayas (JNVs) in the country to take JEE and NEET competitive exams, providing access to resources and guidance that might otherwise not be easily available to them. 

ENABLE extends field-leading, free-of-cost coaching with targeted mentoring and continuous evaluation, supported by the benefits of a digital medium. With 20 times lesser cost per successful student as compared to any other premier coaching programme in the country, ENABLE has helped create a 10-fold increase in access to elite colleges in STEM.  

Commenting on the success of the initiative, Vinod Kulkarni, CSR Head, Tata Motors, said, “As a responsible corporate citizen committed towards enriching the youth of the country, Tata Motors has exerted continued emphasis on the need of making quality education accessible to all.” 

The programme was first executed in Puducherry in 2011 and later replicated in JNVs across Mangalore, Palghar, Kolhapur and Rajgir. Since inception over 45,000 students have been a part of ENABLE. In the academic year 2021-22, over 10,500 students appeared for JEE exam, of these 42 per cent qualified JEE Main and 11 per cent cleared JEE Advanced. For NEET, 12 per cent of the qualifying students made it to the top 10 medical institutes.
