Info-Tech HCL Infosystems to open 100 career development centres CHANDIGARH: In an effort to bridge the gap in demand and supply of skilled professionals in IT sector, the $2.7-billion HCL Infosystems plans to open 100 more career development centres across the country within a year. "We will be opening 100 more such centres in the country which will involve the enrolment of 60,000-70,000 students within next 12 months,'' HCL Infosystems Executive Vice President Rajendra Kumar told reporters here after launching its 31st centre. The company has enrolled 5,000-6,000 students in these centres. "The students do not have the required capabilities on leading edge technologies which is quite critical to build IT, communication and telecom (ICT) infrastructure in the country. It is estimated that there is an annual demand of around 2 lakh networki ng professionals in the country while the supply is limited to about 60 per cent of the demand,'' he added. By 2010, he said, there would be a demand for 2.3 million professionals in the country. - PTI
