NIIT’s Emerging Businesses – consisting of the business lines IFBI (Institute of Finance, Banking and Insurance) and NIIT Imperia – are seeking like-minded Business Partners in the cities of
Agra, Allahabad, Amritsar, Bhopal, Coimbatore, Dehradun, Guwahati, Indore, Jabalpur, Jaipur, Jammu, Jamshedpur, Jodhpur, Kochi, Kozhikode, Lucknow, Ludhiana, Madurai, Mysore, Nashik, Patna, Rajkot, Ranchi, Surat, Trivandrum, Vadodara & Varanasi
NIIT Imperia, launched in September 2006, provides Executive Management Education in association, currently, with IIM-A, IIM-C, IIM-I, IMT-G, and IIFT, using the revolutionary Synchronous Learning technology. IFBI, launched in September 2006 in strategic partnership with ICICI Bank, creates entry-level and re-skilled professionals for the Banking, Insurance and Financial Service sectors, and has formal tie-ups, at present, with HDFC Bank, Yes Bank, UCO Bank, the ICICI Group, and Infosys (of which IFBI is a Value Partner). Both these ventures are always co-located at specially-designed exclusive education centres. Details of these activities, offerings, student fees, testimonials, etc, are available on the websites www.niitimperia.com and www.ifbi.com.
NIIT’s Emerging Businesses have received an overwhelming response from industry, students, media and public at large. The growth in clients, partners, centers (from 6 at start to 15 now), and students reflects this positive acceptance. Over 1200 middle and senior managers have enrolled for programs offered at NIIT Imperia, typically of 1-year duration. More than 2000 students have already graduated from IFBI’s entry-level 6-month program, with a 100% campus placement record (average salary 2.6 lakhs pa), and another 1400 are on-rolls. However, this represents only a small fraction of the opportunity that exists in these sectors, and one immediate priority of NIIT’s Emerging Businesses is to ramp-up its operations to meet the known demand.
Currently the Education centres are operational in Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Bhubaneswar, Chandighar, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Mumbai, Nagpur, Pune and Vizag.
The next phase of growth will be through Education Centers at some of the cities listed above, consistent with the growth plans of the Emerging Businesses, and with the association of Business Partners if mutually convenient.
Candidates who wish to participate in these opportunities should possess the background, personality and orientation to manage and grow the local operations of an education activity with best-in-class partnerships, demanding compliance requirements, and exceptional goodwill & reputation. They should also be able to provide about 2500 sft of space in a central location, and make an investment of about INR 50 lakhs.
Existing associates of NIIT who are interested in the new opportunities are free to respond to this announcement, but select existing Business Partners will be pre-empaneled for consideration.
The last date for the current phase of expansions will close by 15th March 2008. Persons interested may click on this link Expression of Interest to submit their request.
