National, 4th April 2023: The automotive industry is rapidly advancing with the development of embedded software, Edtech startup Skill-Lync has announced its partnership with CORDOBA to upskill professionals in automotive embedded software development. This will provide the students with a unique opportunity for potential applicants to gain first-hand experience with AUTOSAR and their own MATLAB licenses. This is an extension of Skill-Lync’s existing partnership with Mathworks, which will grant candidates the chance to be certified by Mathworks while they operate on their own MATLAB licenses. With these tools, candidates will be able to complete 5 industry-applicable live projects.
The program will aim to bridge the industry skill gap by providing experienced professionals with the specific skill sets that the industry demands, especially in the automotive space. With the rise of electric vehicles and advancements in automotive technology, the need for skilled embedded software engineers has increased significantly, and this program is designed to equip candidates with the necessary skills to stand out in a competitive job market.
The 22-week live program is designed for experienced professionals in the automotive industry who want to upskill in advanced embedded software development concepts such as C/C++, CAN and UDS, Multicore Microcontroller Programming, AUTOSAR, Model-Based Development using MATLAB and Simulink, and Functional Safety. It includes 6 modules where candidates will have the opportunity to work on 5 industry-relevant live projects and receive a co-branded certificate from NSDC and Skill-Lync upon completion, as well as the option to obtain an IEEE Certification.
“The success of the industry is greatly dependent on having the right professionals who are knowledgeable in the latest technologies to spur innovation and development. Skill-Lync’s unique program for advanced embedded development is a step in the right direction to address the need for specialised talent, and we eagerly anticipate the effect it will have on the market,” said Suryanarayanan PaneerSelvam, Co-Founder and CEO of Skill-Lync.
At the end of this program, students will receive a co-branded certificate from both NSDC and Skill-Lync, as well as become eligible for an IEEE Certification.
“Our executive embedded program is designed to act as a significant catalyst for our candidates professional journey, with a focus to help support specific industry skill requirements and supporting our learners to become the engineering leaders of tomorrow.” said Rohan Kochar, Business head at Skill-Lync.
These developments come in the wake of Global Market Insights’ prediction that the Automotive Operating Systems Market would experience a CAGR of over 10% by 2030. Moreover, the Asia Pacific region is projected to have the fastest-growing market for automotive software, with a CAGR of 20.4% from 2020 to 2025.
The program offers maximum flexibility for candidates, with options to choose a construct and services best suited to their needs, including job assistance, an upskilling-focused package, and individual modules.
