Amity University, Haryana (AUH) and NEC Technologies India (NECTI) have announced the launch of a joint training program in the Japanese language, culture and Japanese business practices for Amity University students. NEC Japanese Language Academy (NJLA), the language and intercultural training academy of NECTI will facilitate the training program. Over 200 students are expected to be trained under this program. An MoU has been signed by Piyush Sinha, Deputy Managing Director, NECTI, and Prof. (Dr) Padmakali Banerjee, Pro Vice Chancellor and Dean Academics, Director Amity Business School, in the presence of key officials and dignitaries such as Prof. Ashok Tiku, Head, Amity School of Languages; Reena Nigam, Head, Amity Skills Institute; and Archana Tiwary, Assistant Professor, Amity School of languages.

Under this agreement, NECTI will act as a skill development training partner of Amity School of Languages and assist the university in providing Japanese language training and skill-based knowledge training, especially for IT and mechanical engineering students of AUH. This training program will be open to students from other faculties as well. The university will offer intensive diploma and certificate courses as a joint program between AUH and NECTI. Enrolled students will get an opportunity to visit NECTI and will also be taken on education tours to get practical exposure. Trained students will also be given access to internship opportunities at NECTI.

Piyush Sinha, Deputy Managing Director, NECTI, says, “We are delighted to partner with Amity University for training students. Global supply-demand dynamics in skilled manpower offer great opportunities for Indian students. The program will offer an edge to students by training them in the Japanese language and culture while applying to Japanese multinational corporations based in India. The training will also help students be competitive on a global stage. We are confident that this program will provide an ideal platform for trained students to prepare for their professional life.”
