An Endeavour To Build A Futuristic Education Eco-System
EFY EDU is an EFY Group initiative that brings all the elements of the Education Domain - comprising Educational Institutes, Teachers, Technologists that are building solutions for the education domain, Trainers, Students, and all those that have any role to play in the education arena - under one umbrella, with a purpose.
The Aim: To build a progressive and futuristic Education Eco system in the country that is at par with the best of the education systems in the world!
The following activities have been planned to realise this aim:
EDUTECH EXPO: The event will bring in educational institutions offering professional education (ex: engineering colleges, BBA and MBA institutes, etc) as exhibitors. The aim is to facilitate students and parents in understanding career options available, and selecting an educational institution that can help them pursue the chosen career.
Tech@Edu Expo: Seemingly the first expo of its kind, where the academia will be able to take note of the latest technology solutions available for enabling education.
The Workshops: A powerful platform for educating the educators of the nation, wherein they will be able to listen to keynotes, panel discussions and case-studies shared by the leaders of the industry, and their peers who have already tasted success with technology
EFY Tech@Edu Awards: A new initiative by the EFY Group to recognise the leaders from the education sector, for excellence in technology adoption in their respective institutions. Around 50 awards will be handed over to the top-shots (chairmen, directors, dean, principals, etc) of the leading education institutions, which will include:
- Government colleges
- Self-financed colleges
- Government schools
- Self-financed schools and
- Training institutes.
The Academia Industry Summit: Another initiative to bring in the leaders from the academia - herein, we will connect them with thought-leaders of the industry The objective of this summit will be to facilitate the industry in having a candid discussion with the academia, and let the academia know the short-comings that the industry encounter amongst the fresh college/university pass-outs who join the corporate world. The goal would be to identify short-term and long-term steps that the academia can take to bridge the gaps.
