The program would train more than 2,000 school teachers from various educational institutes across tier 2 and tier 3 cities in Tamil Nadu.

"Technology is rapidly transforming the education sector with digital technologies increasingly becoming an integral part of the students' daily lifestyle. By announcing this initiative for teachers in Tamil Nadu on the special occasion of Teacher's Day, TCS believes that empowering the teachers through this program on digital learning pedagogies will help enhance the quality of education provided across Tamil Nadu," said TCS executive VP Ajoyendra Mukherjee.
