Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday flagged off a new training programme for Tata Consultancy Services trainee graduates in Japan by inaugurating the TCS Japan Technology and Culture Academy.
The first batch of 48 TCS Japan trainees will proceed to India to undergo training for six to eight weeks at various TCS locations.

“Apart from increasing their exposure to new technologies, the TCS Japan graduate trainees will learn about quality and other processes as well as business skills. This will be followed by on-the-job training on projects for six months,” a TCS statement said.
In April this year, TCS and Mitsubishi Corp announced that they were merging their IT operations in Japan to create a new global scale player in the Japanese IT industry, with TCS having a 51 per cent stake in the new venture called Tata Consultancy Services Japan.
“You are going as employees of TCS but I want you to come back to Japan as ambassadors of India,” Mr. Modi said on the occasion.
