Note from the Director's Desk (IGTC)

"It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the Indo-German Training Centre (IGTC)! As a part of the Indo-German Chamber of Commerce, we take pride in nurturing managerial talent for our member companies.

Through our 18-month, intensive program, we facilitate a close interlocking of academic course work and on-the-job training in one learning system, which results into a new qualitative dimension in business administration education. It is a model wherein the corporates are both - a destination for our students and a full partner in their education. They are involved at every stage - in the selection, endorsement and admission of the students, curriculum design and development, and practical training and mentoring.

At IGTC, our students study all functional areas of business administration and subsequently apply them to real time industry projects. Through the practical training, our students learn to cope with the changing job demands and to appreciate the variety of social relationships that exist in the working life. They gain independence, a sense of responsibility and achievement, and a special source of motivation from their mentors.

As the link between theory and practice is very close, our students develop expert knowledge and professional skills and experience in view of a future challenging management position. They have a strong identification with their training company that enables them to adapt easily to the company's structure and facilitates final recruitment. It is, only natural that several organizations foresee a multitude of advantages in investing in our model.

On this note, I invite you to read on and know more about our Training Centre!"

Note from the Director General's Desk (IGCC)

""For years, German companies have been considered industrial leaders, admired globally for their technical expertise, precision, and perfection in planning and execution. One of the undisputed factors, credited for the success of the German industry, has been its world-renowned Dual Training System, wherein the theoretical classes are organized and certified by the Chambers of Commerce, which are autonomous bodies of the private sector, and the practical training is imparted by the corporates themselves.

Acknowledging this factor, we, at the Indo-German Chamber of Commerce have modelled the Dual Training System in India through our Indo-German Training Centre (IGTC) in Mumbai and Chennai, and soon in Bangalore. We seek to utilize the vast experience of the German companies and the worldwide German Chamber network to bridge the gap for trained manpower in India and, in turn, to provide a boost to India's vast growth potential."
