In India, through 21K Skills, Galvze would offer a series of 12-week intensive, customized online programs in the categories of Cloud Native Developer, Data Science Core, Blockchain, and Cybersecurity. Galvze Instructors based out of the USA would conduct the courses remotely and sessions would be supported by supplemental material prepared by Galvze's team.

Every course remotely offered by Galvze in India is meticulously curated to cover top of the line technological advancements and methodologies in relation to the respective fields.

All course participants will be required to qualify the pre-admission assessment and attend a prep course to be part of the Cohort.
Commenting on this partnership, Santosh Kumar, Co-founder & Chief Executive Officer from 21K Skills said, "IT Professionals in India can make a great contribution to the field globally. The increasing demand for specialised employment avenues in these segments encouraged us to collaborate with Galvze which is a global leader in this domain. Through our initiative of getting advanced yet accessible courses offered by Galvze to India, it is our effort to offer IT professionals an opportunity to build advanced in-demand technical skills from the comfort of their homes. This would also augment in shortening the gap between Higher education and industry readiness."
