Join AWS Bharat Innovators Series' fireside chat as Simplilearn founder discusses skills for the digital age

Forget the rat race; today's professionals are sprinting in a marathon. New technologies emerge seemingly overnight, and the skills needed to stay relevant can feel like a moving target. While traditional degrees provide a foundation, they often lack the laser focus on practical skills that employers crave.

It is against this backdrop that AWS Bharat Innovators Series, hosted by AWS, AMD, and YourStory, has organised a virtual fireside chat titled ‘Beyond the degree: How edtech is empowering working professionals’ featuring Krishna Kumar, Founder and CEO of Simplilearn, a leading force in the online learning revolution. This discussion delves into the company's journey and its commitment to bridging the gap between academic qualifications and the practical needs of today's workforce. The virtual event will take place on June 07, 2024, at 3 pm IST and will provide an engaging platform for educators, edtech enthusiasts, students, and anyone passionate about the future of learning.

Moderated by Sunil PP, India and South Asia Lead for Education at Amazon Web Services (AWS), the fireside chat will feature Kumar's insights on how Simplilearn has been empowering professionals. Expect to hear strategies for developing in-demand skills, leveraging online learning for continuous upskilling, and navigating the rapidly changing future of professional development.
