It is aiming to train over one lakh students and professionals in 2018

Automation Anywhere has joined hands with EdCast for “futureskills,” a NASSCOM skilling initiative unveiled by Prime Minister Narendra Modi earlier this year.

With this partnership, Automation Anywhere has become the first provider of upskilling programs in the Robotic Process Automation (RPA) domain under futureskills initiative. RPA is among the eight technologies identified by NASSCOM which are poised to grow tremendously, both nationally and globally, in the coming decade.

As part of the agreement, subscribers on futureskills portal will have exclusive access to Automation Anywhere University (AAU) training programs that encompass RPA technology overviews, theoretical concepts, typical business cases, and hands-on practice exercises. The program will empower the students with globally-recognized Automation Anywhere certifications that can lead to exciting career opportunities.

AAU was formed with the mission of transferring RPA knowledge and skills to professionals across all industries worldwide and preparing the next generation of successful business leaders for the new era of global work. AAU is an RPA learning platform that includes a catalogue of courses and certifications delivered through an online e-learning portal as well as in classrooms through a network of accredited global partners. These programs are available around the world for all types of RPA roles.

Through the program, Automation Anywhere is aiming to train over one lakh students and professionals in 2018. AAU’s partnership on futureskills will further enable NASSCOM’s vision of upskilling two million technology professionals and skilling another two million potential employees and students over the next few years.
