They can now get higher paid jobs after graduation because they will be getting an M.Tech degree along with industry experience through the project based learning provided by Skill-Lync courses." said Suryanarayanan P, Co-Founder & CEO, Skill-Lync.
Skill-Lync was officially founded in April 2018 by Suryanarayanan P(CEO) and Sarangarajan V(CTO). They both had their first-hand impact due to the lack of quality and application-based learning in the Indian undergraduate education system. To curb this problem, Skill-Lync was launched as a YouTube channel which shared engineering tips, and today it is a platform that provides advanced engineering courses. It provides different types of courses, ranging from one-off modules to full-time curriculums.
The startup is backed by global investors including YCombinator, Founder of Gmail & YC Partner – Paul Buchheit and founder of Better Capital Vaibhav Domkundwar.
