TCS ILP Training Centre at HIT

TCS has chosen Haldia Institute of Technology as one of its ILP training centre. This centre can accomodate around 700 TCS Trainee Associates.
8 faculties from CSE, MCA, and IT department of HIT has been inducted as ILP trainer till now.
We have to teach Basic Programming Concepts using Dr Scheme programming language, Structured Modelling, OOP concept using Dr Java, OOP implementation. We started taking classes from 31 December.
For these sessions, I had to give so much time for good preparation. Though overall, I am enjoying much these sessions due to the good quality associates (or students !). Only today I got some time to breath - and so I am writing this blog !
TCS Guwahati is mentoring this centre. They took our telephonic interview before inducting us as trainee. Most of the associates are from Tamil Nadu. I am taking sessions for 2 batches. Most of these associates in these 2 batches are from Biotech background. But they are picking up the subject very nicely.
