Education States - Karnataka Dale Carnegie facility near Bangalore soon Our Bureau Bangalore, Oct 12 Dale Carnegie Training will launch a finishing school for graduates in Bangalore on October 22 this year. The training school has been set up in partnership with the State Government and will train close to 10,000 students every year. “This is just an interim arrangement and by 2010 we would have a full-fledged facility on 30 acres land in Ramanagaram (near Bangalore) that would have a capacity to train close to 50,000 students per year,” said Mr Raj Bowen, CEO, Dale Carnegie Training. Target studentsThe six-month certificate programme is targeted at students from Tier II towns who would require training in soft skills like communication, competency development, marketing and sales, personality development and confidence enhancement to make them more employable. “Though this would make them industry-ready, this course has been designed more to take them faster to their last job rather than just their first job,” Mr Bowen said. He says input for the programme has come from several successful CEOs and the industry at large. “So the syllabus is a distillation of corporate experience,” he said. PartnershipsThe programme would run three times a week for four months and would end with a two-month internship. Dale Carnegie is currently targeting individual students for the programme, but would be open to partnerships with corporates looking for training for their new-recruits, according to Mr Bowen.
