About ShiKSHA SUTRA

We are India's leading career transformation platform, empowering 50,000+ learners with industry-aligned education and guaranteed placement support.

Our Story

Born from a Belief That Everyone
Deserves a Great Career

ShiKSHA SUTRA was founded in 2018 by a team of IIT/IIM alumni who were frustrated with the massive gap between what colleges teach and what companies actually need.

We set out to build something different — programs designed in collaboration with industry, delivered by practitioners who've actually done the work, and backed by a placement team that doesn't rest until every student is placed.

Today, with 50,000+ alumni across 30+ countries and 500+ hiring partners, we are proud to be India's most trusted career transformation platform.
