Students desirous of checking their aptitude for IT can appear for NITAT 2008 by registering online on www.niiteducation.com/NITAT or visit the nearest NIIT centre.

 

A list of 'Promising IT Professionals of the Future', including names of those with 'Very High' or 'High IT Aptitude' will be announced by NIIT and made available on www.niiteducation.com/NITAT. This identified resource pool can be accessed by prospective employers including leading technology companies for their manpower needs. NIIT will also award special recognition certificates to merit list candidates and encourage their pursuit of a career in IT. Toppers will also be invited to a special 'Placement Fair' at key locations, across the country.   

 

Flagging off NITAT 2008, nationally, Mr. G. Raghavan, President-Individual Learning Business, NIIT said, "The Indian IT-BPO industry continues to be a lucrative career destination for the youth. In addition to software development, other areas such as Infrastructure Management; development for the Web, Mobile & Interactive Media space are also offering tremendous opportunities for IT career aspirants."

 

As per NASSCOM, there is a need for 8,50,000 software professionals and 1.4 million ITES-BPO professionals by 2010. Additionally, there is a requirement for 3,00,000 digital media professionals by 2008. A recent IDC survey has also cautioned the industry about a possible shortfall of nearly 1 lakh skilled professionals in the Infrastructure Management space, as against the need for 3,75,000 skilled professionals by 2009.

 

NITAT is aimed at enabling graduates and students pursuing their studies in engineering, arts, commerce and science streams to gauge their aptitude for a career in the IT sector, identify skills further required, if any, and thus systematically charter their career into the IT industry.

 

Global technology majors such as Adobe, EMC, Microsoft, Oracle and Sun Microsystems have expressed support to NITAT 2008. NIIT's pioneering initiative—NITAT—which has been endorsed by NASSCOM, IDC and World Chess Champion Viswanathan Anand, in the first three years, has already tested over 170,000 candidates, till date.

 

NITAT has been designed as an objective type test of reasoning, comprehension, data interpretation skills and behavioral traits. Every student undergoing the test will receive a score-card with their interpretation, along with her/his nationwide and zonal ranking. The assessment is expected to be of particular benefit to graduating engineers in deciding the careers that they should take up.
