Cambridge enters pact with MATS

Our Bureau

Bangalore , May 18

Cambridge Integrated Services, a business processing outsourcing firm, has entered into an MoU with MATS School of Business & IT, Bangalore, to create a tailor-made post graduate programme for existing and potential employees of Cambridge.

The three-year programme, which will lead to a Post Graduate Diploma in Management, will be created exclusively for the needs of Cambridge through an active collaboration between the two partners.

Special curriculum

An Category A institution among the top B-Schools in India, MATS will introduce a special curriculum to address the requirements of Cambridge, while also working with the curriculum recommended by the All India Management Association.

Under the agreement, MATS will provide course management, infrastructure, student performance tracking system, library facilities and faculty mentors, while Cambridge will contribute through guest lectures from both within the organisation and overseas, and faculty support.

Mr Nimish Soni, Managing Director, Cambridge Integrated Services India said, "Given the growth predicted in the BPO industry and the shortage of quality manpower in India, we believe the corporate sector should take the initiative in creating employees who are BPO-ready through collaborative efforts with the academia and student community."

Cambridge will initially depute 60 of its employees for the programme.

"We are excited about the opportunity to create a programme exclusively for the BPO industry. There is a misconception that BPO industry does not require any special skills. Through a programme designed to address the needs of Cambridge in particular, we hope to elevate the status of the BPO industry and draw attention to its special requirements," said Mr Chenraj Jain, Chairman Jain Group of Institutions and President MATS School of Business and IT.
