UpGrad and the Project Management Institute (PMI) have expanded their collaboration. The goal of this strategic partnership is to launch a new line of industry-ready bootcamps that will give professionals the tools they need to succeed in the workforce of the future.
Combining knowledge to improve learning
The collaboration takes advantage of PMI's project management experience and upGrad Knowledgehut's digital learning platform. By combining these, the partnership hopes to provide jointly designed Bootcamps and updated certificates that are precisely suited to satisfy industry demands.
The partnership launches two new Bootcamps, the Software Engineering Bootcamp (SEB) and the DevOps Engineering Bootcamp (DEB), with an emphasis on technology professionals. These courses are intended for students who possess strong technical knowledge and implementation skills, in order to improve their job prospects and accreditation.
