Bangalore May 18:

Accenture in partnership with The Massachusetts Institute of Technology's office of professional education programmes has launched a co-branded training and certification programme for its employees based on the company's application delivery curriculum.

The Accenture Solutions Delivery Academy would help in building skilled workforce by establishing an interface between the industry and the academia, said Mr Kevin Campbell, Group Chief Executive, Outsourcing, Accenture.

The programme would also help bridge the critical gap in demand and supply of quality talent, he said.

About 20,000 global employees of Accenture would be eligible to enrol in the programme, which is a formal training with on-the-job experience. Some 4,000 of the 20,000 eligible employees are based in India, which would be the largest consumer of this programme, said Mr Sandeep Arora, lead executive, Accenture Delivery Centres for Technology, India.

The Accenture Solutions Delivery Academy programme spanning over 18-24 months is focussed and structured appropriately to build critical technology skill sets, Mr Arora said. For Accenture, India has emerged as the largest global delivery centre, where the company expects to have some 35,000 employees by end-2007.
