CHENNAI : IIT Madras and IIM Ahmedabad-incubated EdTech Startup GUVI has launched a new platform to help address the challenges faced by job seekers. This platform can be utilised by job aspirants completely free of cost. The platform can be accessed through the following link – https://www.placementpreparation.io/.
The initiative is designed to assist students in securing placement by helping them ace their Aptitude preparations.
GUVI empowers career aspirants of IT and software jobs through self-paced learning tech courses, ZEN class career programs and other vernacular EdTech services. The Start-up, offers an online platform for students to learn in their mother tongues, also offers specialised IT courses to upskill and make them ‘job ready’.
Placements are one of the most important moments in a student’s life. To prepare for placements, students have had to attend coaching classes or get expensive books. Unfortunately, students from rural areas or lower-income households cannot take advantage of these resources because it requires a lot of money.
GUVI believes the right to education should be within reach of everybody, regardless of their economic and social background. With this in mind, they designed Placement Preparation, a free platform that allows aspirants to practise aptitude topics for free and be ready for placements. The Placement Preparation is a free interactive platform designed by a team of industry experts with decades of experience in teaching, training, and placement.
Elaborating on this initiative, Mr Arun Prakash, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of GUVI, said, “Due to a lack of time and money, people in India do not have access to quality placement preparation resources. We wanted to create a platform that promoted equitable access to education. We aim to provide comprehensive quality resources to assist students to prepare for their dream careers.”
The platform features include:
⮚ The platform is 100% free, with no subscriptions or charges.
⮚ Simplified concepts to make everything easier to understand.
⮚ Real-life applications to help students understand the concept by emphasising its importance.
⮚ Easy-to-memorise formulas in an interactive tabular format.
⮚ The latest and relevant questions added in the last 5 years of exams.
