Started as a Pilot in 2019, the summer internship programme by Henry Harvin Education wrote its own ‘Super 30’ success story. A bunch of around 30 students from Lovely Professional University in 2019 got training, certification and internship from Henry Harvin in Data Science. Soon after that as placement season started, this bunch of Super 30, were amongst the first ones to get placed in the core field during the placement season.
Soon this pilot turned into a full fledged project at Henry Harvin Education. In 2020, to help students get internships during lockdown, Henry Harvin was amongst the first in the country to launch #GharPeInternship, a summer internship programme from home that includes certification, project and internship including internship opportunities with US based firms such as Tutree.
Till now, #GharPeInternship has helped over 700 students to utilise their time during the prolonged lockdown in upskilling and reinventing themselves for the post COVID opportunities. Opportunities includes Data Science, Business Analytics, Digital Marketing, Content Marketing and more.
Talking about the initiative, Kounal Gupta, CEO, Henry Harvin said, “Free course versus industry experience. What do you think matters more to the students? During these trying times, it is extremely very important for students to build their profiles with not just learning but also exposure to the real industry problems. At Henry Harvin, our motto is ‘Make Educated Employable’ and #GharPeInternship Summer Internship Program resonates with our motto and needs of today!”
