O2 Skills Academy has signed an agreement with the Telangana government to impart skills to 1,260 students in the hospitality sector. “About 35 students per batch will get theoretical and practical classes for three months with an option to get additional skills in wellness therapies, hair and beauty treatments. The curriculum is designed and approved by the Telangana government,” Ritesh Mastipuram, founder and Managing Director, O2 Spa said in a statement here on Monday.
