College admissions go digital


Chennai: The global pandemic has disrupted the way education is imparted. While, governments and colleges are thinking of ways to start the new academic session, the first hurdle to cross is the admissions process itself.

Restricted mobility, limited staff and a short time window due to delay in the results of the current academic year, make screening of thousands of applications a difficult task.

Intain Technologies Ltd, IN-D and Vindhya e-Infomedia Private Limited announced that they have collaborated to launch Prarambh, a digital platform for credible and convenient admissions process.

According to a press note, Prarambh aims to address this challenge through the use of artificial intelligence (AI) for automation and blockchain for ensuing integrity and privacy. Students will be able to submit their educational details on Prarambh which will authenticate their profile through an AI based KYC process.
