More About TSSC and Its Strategy
In the past several months, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has been able to carry out numerous projects, one of which is to educate all the state governments about the impending potential of the 5G roll out. It’s not just 5G, according to K Rajaraman, Secretary of the (DoT), as emerging semiconductor technologies and the expansion of the nation’s electronics industry will also call for a variety of skills that students need to be familiar with.
The new training laboratories and CoEs will be established at the ITIs and top universities using a “hub and spoke approach,” according to the Council. Additionally, TSSC has branched out into new business areas like the creation of CoEs, foreign skill development programmes, placements, and paid programmes in its capacity as the apex body for telecom skills.
