Apna to launch more BPO courses

MUMBAI, INDIA — Professional platform Apna is looking to launch more analytic and data support courses about the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry.
According to a press release, Apna is launching its new initiative called apnaAscend to bridge the skill gap in the Indian job market by providing top-notch upskilling, reskilling, and training to aspiring professionals and connecting them with top companies for relevant opportunities.
Aside from BPO, the firm will also release more courses for job roles such as sales, relationship management, hospitality, and retail sectors.
This move comes after consulting firm McKinsey & Company reported that around 375 million people would have to change their field of work this decade to meet the expectations of employers.
Apna said they plan to upskill one million job seekers in India by 2024 through apnaAscend.
Commenting on the growth plans, apnaAscend COO Karthik Manivannan stated, “We are committed to making millions of job seekers future-ready to bridge the talent gap.”
“Thanks to robust participation in the apnaAscend program from students across India, we are confident they will be upskilled with the relevant requirements of organizations seeking talent to find their dream jobs,” Manivannan added.
