NIIT Limited recently announced the launch of new-age GNIIT programme that can be pursued anywhere anytime, by leveraging the unique cloud learning methodology.

Pioneering NIIT Cloud CampusTM empowers students to learn on his own terms, at his own pace, wherever and whenever they want it. Students enjoy higher mobility as they can easily access educational services using a Netbook or a Mobile device that connects them to NIITs Cloud CampusTMnetwork that would be managed by NIIT centrally using the power of Cloud Computing.

Cloud computing is a phenomenon of the 21st century, an all new services delivery model that uses the Internet as a platform. According to independent technology and market research firm Forrester Research, cloud computing is a “standardized IT capability, such as software application platform or infrastructure, delivered via Internet technologies in a pay-per-use and self-service way.”
 
Speaking on this significant development G Raghavan, Chief Executive, Career Building Solutions, NIIT Limited, remarked, “The new-age GNIIT program will help create a pool of trained professionals for todays globalized knowledge economy. The use of cloud platform will ensure that students can procure the avant-garde training from any corner of the globe and equip themselves with skill sets that employers value, thus helping them chart exciting careers in information technology.”  
 
NIITs collaborative learning takes students beyond the traditional classroom based student-teacher relationship through its recent GNIIT syllabus. Students enrolling for the programme will be provided with technically robust netbook, a well designed digital courseware and a fully paid data card. Furthermore, the technology backed learning of NIITs Cloud Learning Methodology supports group learning through interactive features like 24x7 lab and e-library access, instant tech updates, interaction with faculty and peers and access to online video streams.

As a result the learning process is not just limited to textbooks but is enhanced through group learning.
