Pune-based ASM Group of Institutes has announced that it will adopt cloud computing curricula from the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Educate global initiative into its mainstream college syllabus to help develop the next generation of cloud professionals. The cloud computing content from AWS Educate will be offered as part of the Master of Business Administration (MBA)/ Postgraduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) in Emerging Technologies by the ASM Group of Institutes starting August 2020.
On collaborating with AWS, Dr. Sandeep Pachpande, Chairman of ASM Group of Institutes said, “Digital Transformation has brought about a rapid change in organizations worldwide creating a huge demand for skilled cloud professionals. To fill this growing demand, ASM is proud to work together with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to launch India’s first Postgraduate Diploma Programme in Management, which integrates AWS Educate cloud curriculum. With this new approach, we will be equipping students with skills in cloud computing required at a global platform using real-world tools thus creating industry-ready competent techno-management professionals.”
The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) approved two-year MBA/ PGDM is a unique programme that enables students to learn cutting edge in-demand skills in emerging technologies such as cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), Big Data, and data science. Today’s managers are expected to understand the big picture and be conversant with the latest trends and technology so that they can go from just managing people to managing technology. Unlike general-purpose management programs, the course is designed to create employable and industry-ready digital managers who are fit for roles like cloud practitioner, cloud associate, data analyst, HR analyst, ML scientist, cloud sales; cloud engineer, networking specialist, database specialist, system administrator, agile developer, project manager, and so on, which are in high demand in the current digital transformation era.
