Commenting on the partnership, Managing Director, Jindal Stainless, Mr Abhyuday Jindal, said, “The pace of technological change is reshaping industries and redefining the skills required for efficient functioning in the workplace. For an organisation, staying ahead therefore depends not only on adopting new technologies, but also on continually building the capabilities to use them effectively. We believe learning and upskilling must be an ongoing part of professional development, enabling our people to adapt and contribute to the organisation’s evolving needs. Our partnership with FutureSkills Prime is another step towards creating wider access to learning opportunities across the organisation.”
