karROX Technologies is introducing the new concept
of an IT training mall. Leveraging this, the company has unveiled
major expansion plans which aims at 100 percent growth by the end
of the current fiscal. Says Jitendra Nair, vice president–IT
training, “The IT training market today has a lot of limitations
with regards to what course one can choose and how one can do it.
This is largely due to the limited capacities of each institute.
We have the capacity to launch a course no sooner than it is launched
in the US ensuring that our students remain at the cutting edge
of technology.”
The karROX repertoire includes courses ranging
from software development to networking and wireless technology
and e-security. The effort is to offer an appropriate mix of these
programmes to suit the needs of the market.
karROX has the unique distinction of being the
only study centre for IGNOU in the state offering Masters, Post
Graduate and Diploma courses in information technology. karROX has
also tied up the Sikkim Manipal University to offer similar courses
for the IT and ITeS industries.
The company has embarked on a major expansion
spree that will see it grow from 70 to 150 centres by the end of
the current fiscal. Says Nair, “The idea is to take karROX
to the market allowing students all over the country to avail of
the facilities and training on high-end technologies offered by
us, enabling them to stay ahead of the competition and increase
their net value in the technology market. We will be using the franchisee
model to expand our offices in the country and are in talks with
quite a few people in this regards.”
In the near future, the company plans to leverage
its Singapore offices to venture into the Chinese market with a
portfolio offering high-end IT training programmes and products
covering among other areas enterprise resource planning. It also
plans an entry into Malaysia and Mauritius within the next few months.
