KOCHI: Computer Society of India has been designated by the Kerala State IT Mission as the official certification partner of the State Government's prestigious Akshaya project to `bridge the digital divide'.

It intends to transform Kerala into India's foremost knowledge society by familiarising at least one person from every family in the State with the basic use of computers and empowering them to access relevant e-content in regional language. Mr Sathish Babu, Regional VP (South), CSI, said the first phase of testing was expected to assess over 100,000 test makers making it the biggest certification exercise worldwide.
