Foundation Program Deployment Process
- 3 sections - Pre Deployment , Deployment and Post Deployment.
- Pre Deployment involves planning and preparation for the rollout
- Deployment involves course delivery and student performance assessment
- Post Deployment involves student counseling , reporting and feedback
We had started the Deployment phase of Campus connect Foundation Program on 17th January 2009.A batch of 50 students are selected for the program.
By the end of the program, the student develops a good knowledge and understanding of a complete family of concepts, is process aware, and thus is fully prepared to become a software professional.
