Moving one step ahead from learning Japanese at Indian centers, the time has arrived for a post-graduate program in Japanese management in India.
The first of its kind in India, this 15-month course will be an
international collaborative effort between two leading education
service providers from Singapore and India, imparting a combination of
Japanese technical and business management skills.
Nihongo Bashi, a Singapore-based firm in Japanese education and
training services and a leading Indian educational group, the RV Group
of Institutions, will jointly offer and certify a post-graduate
programme in Japanese management. This is aimed at enabling
professionals in different domains to explore the Japanese
marketplace.
Participants will also learn business language skills and cultural
awareness skills based on the Japan External Trade Organisation’s
(JETRO) business Japanese test. The program also includes a "company
assignment" that will provide students with real-life experience in a
formal Japanese environment.
"Japan represents a significant market opportunity for Indian software
service vendors. The Japanese market for IT services is expected to
grow to $107 billion by 2008, from the $88 billion in 2005. Success in
this market however demands a good grasp of Japanese culture and
language," said Krishnamurthy Ramamurthy, vice president - IT services
delivery, iGATE Global Solutions. iGATE is one of the early entrants in
Japan and is seeing significant traction in this market.
There are around 70 Indian IT firms in Japan including all the larger IT companies such as TCS, Infosys, Wipro, HCL and Satyam.
“Although India’s exports to Japan is less than 3%, Indian companies
are seeing a huge potential and many opportunities there,” said Karthik
Tirupathi, president and CEO, Nihongo Bashi.
"The curriculum and the faculty we have lined up reflect our intent to
produce professionals who will occupy leadership positions in the
industry and fulfill the need for thought leaders in the Indo-Japan
business sector. Japan epitomizes efficiency and technological
excellence while today's India exudes dynamism and a 'can do' spirit,”
he added.
