Tech Mahindra Upskills 8000 Employees in AI
Tech Mahindra has made a major investment to keep in sync with the changing dynamics of technology vis-a-vis Artificial Intelligence, and hence conducted a wide-scale training program for their employees. A total of 8000 employees were enrolled in this upskilling program which will train them in the functioning of AI, as per the Economic Times. Generative AI and Quantum Computing have been the key focus in this program. Tech Mahindra Global Chief People Officer and Head of Marketing, Harshvendra Soin, shared his insights on the initiative and its results.
He said, “At Tech Mahindra, as we are increasing our focus across BFSI, healthcare, manufacturing and retail sectors in geographies like the USA, we are investing in quantum computing, cybersecurity and AI. We will also continue to invest in learning development of employees to create a future-proof and resilient talent pool. We have trained and upskilled around 8,000 employees in generative AI and other AI platforms in the June 2023 quarter.” Tech Mahindra took a strong hit on their profits last quarter, but they have continued to invest in these upskilling programs to prepare themselves for the future in technology.
