An Empirical Study on How IT Companies in Bangalore Collaborate with Educational Institutions to Develop Sustainability-Focused Curriculum on Employee Training and Development for Future IT Professionals

Abstract

The paper was aimed at studying the collaboration of
IT industry in Bangalore with educational institutions to
prepare employee training (Develop sustainability focused
curriculums). It is a quantitative, descriptive type of research
through which we intend to observe the impact and feasibility
of these partnerships for etching skills into new IT professionals.
The data was collected through a questionnaire of 100
respondents which were HR managers, learning and
development department from IT companies & faculty
members of educational institutions that is analyzed by various
statistical tools like chi-square test, correlation analysis &
regression analysis. Our findings suggest substantial benefits of
collaboration, but caution that it has limited effectiveness in
delivering sustainability outcomes: there is a weak relationship
between the extent to which collaborations are effective and
their success at achieving sustainability outcomes. Proof of the
fact that these variables are not directly related can be found in
regression analysis. The study revealed significant barriers to
ideal structural integration, such as insufficient resources and
expertise. Through these findings, recommendations are
developed to improve collaboration between institutions of
learning and industry while ensuring that educational curricula
meet the sustainable demands for possible development. This
paper, therefore, recommends that the government implements
more stringent policies supporting IT sustainability and
constructs educational programs to focus on sustainable
education for better job opportunities among IT professionals.
This is also essential in preparing our environment against
future challenges as well before it becomes too late.
