Pune: President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, the Indian technology community information on their capabilities of the nation for rural development through education, e-governance, tele-medicine and health care.

He made the complaint, given his prepared speech, while devoting the International Institute for Information Technology (IIIT) to the nation.

“I gave the IIIT this challenge. Get ready virtual classroom for groups of ten or more villages, “said Kalam, which is a concrete example of using technology for education.

“Give physical and electronic connectivity and connectivity, you have about this economic connectivity. Government, industry and science must work together for education in the e-governance and tele-medicine, “said Kalam.

IIIT offers advanced information technology and management programmes has been developed in the Info-Tech Park Hinjewadi in the hope of the Foundation and research centres, a public charitable trust, the chairman of Finolex PP Chhabria.

The President has agreed to Top-technocrat R.A. Mashelkar observation that Indian IT professionals must work at the upper end of information technology value chain to earn higher income. He pointed out that, compared with a turnover of $ 12 billion over five lakh Indians working in the computer industry, it was possible that only a software company with 50000 people in the world deserve as much as $ 20 Billion .

“In another 10-12 years, we have to win about $ 100 billion on information technology,” he said. Kalam invited programmers in developing software programs and search engines “, whatever the language,” so that the English language is not huge population of the country could take advantage of the Internet in their favour .

Elsewhere, on the occasion of the inauguration of Maharashtra Institute of Technology Engineering Women’s College, Kalam said scientists and engineers can play an important role in the implementation of a change of mentality in homes, laboratories and industrial enterprises.

The President expressed regret on the mentality of people, some privileged, imported trademarks of all systems, cosmetics, passing for defence purposes and communication equipment.

“It is important for people at the middle level to be exposed to broader thinking and to integrate perspective. Mid-career training programmes enable executives to constantly read, reflect and relate.”

It may sound like a platitude, but in today’s business environment what executives need most is the ability to manage change. Faced with the hard realities of globalisation, liberalisation, deregulation, end-user assertiveness and high-paced technology, with hardly any response time, they need to use this skill the most. Learning, relearning, and sometimes, unlearning, are the only three ways to advancement in career paths. Therefore mid-career management education has become imperative.

Says Dr Sudhi Seshadri, Professor, Marketing Area, and Chairperson, Executive Education, Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore, “I have been watching the executive education programmes since 1991 and I find that Indian companies have become increasingly professional in their approach.”

He thinks, now, Indian corporates realise they have to upgrade the skills of their managers for two reasons: a better market share and to retain talent. There is no dearth of supply (trainers, programmes, ideas) or demand (companies, entrepreneurs, government) in this area.

For instance, take IFMR (Institute for Financial Management and Research), Chennai, which takes its manager-trainees through a programme called ‘retooling’. Says IFMR’s Prof G. Balasubramanian, “Such programmes give them an opportunity to reflect on business trends and concepts and their relevance today.”

This, the institution achieves through knowledge sharing, interactive sessions, debates on cost management, behavioural sciences and marketing.

On ‘reskilling’ needs, he says that at a certain stage in their careers, people need to brush up on their fundamentals. “It is important for people at the middle level to be exposed to broader thinking and to integrate perspective. And mid-career training programmes enable executives to constantly read, reflect and relate,” he adds.

The role of organisational motivation can never be overemphasised in today’s dynamic corporate world. Says Latha Ramakrishnan of Laras - Regional Master Licensee, South India for Leadership Management International (LMI), “Mid-career training programmes are relevant now because if you look at competition, it is very easy to match pricing, technology and quality. The only challenge that companies face today is the effectiveness of their employees.” And this can be met through upgrading their skills.

In an attempt to take education to the masses, the Yashwantrao Chavan Maharashtra Open University (YCMOU) will launch a television channel - Yashbharati, in association with the Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro).

Educational programmes will be beamed from the varsity’s Nasikbased campus, using the GSat satellite, to over 170 remote learning centres spread across the state. Announcing this at a press conference on Sunday, YCMOU vice- chancellor Dr Baburao Sabale said that video-conferencing facilities would help students in these centres interact with course facilitators.

The channel will be launched on November 25 - Yashwantrao Chavan’s death anniversary. Sabale added that the YCMOU will be only the second open university after the Indira Gandhi National Open University (Ignou) to implement a satellite education programme. Sabale added that if proper funding was made available to the university, around 1,000 more remote-learning centres would be set up by 2006.

“Such distance-learning programmes are more relevant in an age where the costs of conventional education are rising,” he said. Sabale added that the YCMOU had set up a virtual university for semi-arid tropics (VUSAT), in association with the Andhra Pradeshbased Integrated Crop Research Institute for Semiarid Tropics and the Swaminathan Foundation, on June 5. This is expected to take dry-land horticulture technology to the masses.

Sabale said the YCMOU had made a budgetary provision of Rs 30 lakh for its students to participate in the inter-university sports programme conducted by the All-India University Association. YCMOU’s school of health sciences is set to launch a bachelor’s course in nursing and hospital management, in addition to a course for midwives, which would be conducted in association with Dr Abhay and Rani Bang. He also added that a post-graduate diploma in environment and sustainable development would be launched in December.
