Mentor India For Rural Students
We were extremely pleased to launch our new program- Mentor India on 24th January 2016. In the pilot phase, we adopted a Kannada Medium Government School at Chikkarasinakere, a village which is 100 km away from Bangalore (near Maddur). We mentored, inspired, and taught the students from Class 10th using a 30-hour curriculum spread across 6 Saturdays with the help of volunteers.

Mentor India For Corporates
2nd April, 2016 marked our foray into the corporate world at Vindhya E-Infomedia Pvt. Ltd. Companies who want to inspire, upskill, and increase employee engagement of their organizations can benefit from our Mentor India techniques.
Now we have a clear idea of the audience our Mentor India curriculum can effectively cater to.
- Rural students
- Employees from small and medium-sized enterprises
Using crowd funding, we built an open source curriculum titled Mitra Pustak for high school rural students. For corporates, we have tweaked our content to suit the corporate audience and have added some topics like Agile & NLP that can be highly useful.
