STI goes global with TATA
| | STI’s President Monico V. Jacob was joined by TATA’s Country Manager Vikram Singh in signing the Memorandum of Agreement last August 13, 2014 at Fort Bonifacio Global City. Through the partnership, STI integrates industry specific, application-oriented courses that can be offered as elective subjects for STI’s business-related programs. Thus, STI students are exposed to the latest trends and techniques that are encountered in practice as well as their applicability to the theoretical aspects in the workplace.
“STI offers a unique value proposition by participating with top global companies in aligning their courseware to international industry requirements. Aside from local industry partners, STI has extended its reach in the global community when it comes to quality education,” Dr. Lloyd Bautista says in a statement.
TATA is a $132.35 billion company with 32 publicly-listed TATA enterprises, running companies with significant scale such as TATA Steel, TATA Motors, TATA Power, TATA Chemicals, TATA Global Beverages, TATA Teleservices, TATA Communications, Titan, and Taj Majal Hotels. With the objective to develop Business Process Services and Management as a specialization area in the curriculum offered by STI and boosting the knowledge of STI students about the industry, TCS-Designed Courses aims to support STI in providing the Business and Management program with a full curriculum specializing in Business Process Services and Management. To apply this into the courseware, TCS will conduct a Train the Trainer Program (“TTT Program”) to teach the TCS-Designed Courses to selected STI faculty members. Upon the successful completion of the program, participating faculty members will be deemed TCS-certified to teach the course and students who will learn from these faculty members will receive a certification as well.
TATA has also expressed intentions of participating in STI’s mission to nurture job-ready students by taking part in job fairs and internship programs. With this new partnership, STI students are looking at a future of possibilities on increased employment opportunities in the global business industry.
