Analytics firm Tableau has partnered with the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), Ministry of Education, Government of India to equip students and educators from AICTE’s over 10,500 higher learning institutes with modern data analytics skills.

Through the partnership, AICTE plans to train 500,000 students and faculty over the next two years, said Buddha Chandrashekhar, Chief Coordinating Officer, AICTE.

Through this partnership, Tableau will provide AICTE with Tableau Desktop and Tableau Prep licenses, access to eLearning, and sample curriculum material co-created with University professors for educators to get started teaching analytics in classrooms.

AICTE has selected over 200 educators as Tableau Champions to teach 1-2 other educators from each higher learning institute through a series of workshops and e-learning curriculum.

There remains a growing need to bridge the data skills gap in India. Coursera’s Global Skills Report 2021 revealed how Indians, despite showing high proficiency in machine learning and mathematics, ranked low in data analysis and data visualization skills proficiency at 25 per cent and 38 per cent respectively.
