IBM conducts training for FAST NU students


Karachi: Under IBM’s Academic Initiative program, a three days training on DB2 Academic Associate Certification was recently conducted for the students of FAST NU Karachi.
The DB2 certification program teaches relational database concepts while also providing students with critical, hands-on database skills on IBM’s DB2 9.7 and Data Studio software.
The basic idea behind this activity was to overcome skill shortage and to produce certified resources for IBM’s products. It’s a win-win situation through which students can increase their employability for IBM’s technology, while IBM wanted to build the technical skills in order to bridge the gap between market demand and available resources.
Students were trained on practical usage of DB2. Candidates who passed the certification exam are allowed to submit their resume in IBM’s student opportunity system (SOS) database, which in turn allows IBM managers to search their resumes and gives the students more employability for the cutting edge technology.
