A flagship CSR initiative designed to bridge the gap between academic learning and industry expectations for 50 students from two government polytechnic colleges in Thiruvananthapuram.
Thiruvananthapuram, July 19, 2025: Acsia Technologies, a leading provider of automotive software solutions powering Digital Cockpits & Displays, e-Mobility, and Telematics, has launched its flagship Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative — the Finishing School Project — aimed at upskilling meritorious students from Central Polytechnic College, Vattiyoorkavu, and Government Women’s Polytechnic College, Kaimanam.
The 12-week program, developed and executed by the Acsia Foundation Trust in association with Kanal NGO, is designed to bridge the gap between classroom learning and industry expectations through hands-on training, professional development, and exposure to real-world technology environments.
The inauguration was held on 19 July 2025 at Central Polytechnic College, Vattiyoorkavu, in the presence of faculty members, Acsia leadership team, and student participants. The event began with a traditional lamp-lighting ceremony, followed by keynote addresses and detailed briefings from representatives of Acsia and its partner institutions.
“As part of our CSR mission, we are committed to supporting causes in education and sustainability,” said Mr. Jijimon Chandran, Founder and CEO of Acsia. “With the Finishing School Project, our goal is to provide students — especially those from modest backgrounds — with the tools and confidence to take their first step into a professional career. We believe that’s where real impact begins.”
“This initiative will bring lasting value to our students,” said Ms. Beena L S, Principal of CPTC. “Acsia’s timely support has enabled us to offer a structured and impactful training program at a time when resources were limited.”
“This is not just a training program — it is a commitment to building a future where every deserving student has the chance to succeed,” said Mr. Rejeesh R, Vice President – New Initiatives and CSR Leader at Acsia Technologies. “Through the Acsia Foundation Trust, we aim to enable meaningful change, and this initiative is a reflection of our belief that talent should never go unsupported due to circumstance.”
“The purpose of education is not just to impart knowledge, but to prepare students to contribute meaningfully to the world outside,” said Mr. Vasantharaj G, Vice President – Technology and AI/ML at Acsia. “With this program, we are making a focused attempt to translate technical education into employable skills.”
The curriculum combines technical and soft skills training, covering C programming, embedded systems, Linux, GitHub, and AI fundamentals, alongside resume writing, communication, interview preparation, workplace etiquette, and grooming. The program also includes site visits and mentorship sessions to provide industry exposure and professional guidance.
The Finishing School Project reflects Acsia’s long-standing commitment to creating purpose-driven educational opportunities and building a more inclusive, skilled workforce for the future. The first batch of 50 students will complete training by October 2025, with plans to extend the initiative to other institutions in the coming years.
