Will going to help him to get the good job in IT sector... Or Is there any other way to enter into IT sector for non IT background student? Please help sir.

Ans: Happy to help Raju. Do let me know if your son has finished BSc Chemistry, If he is pursuing BSc, which year is he in. Let him speak to his College faculty to check if he can switch to a BCA program. Simultaneously explore if IITs offer any programs in Comp Science or Cloud Computing for BSc pass. Share more details and I may be able to make further suggestions

Sir, my son is bsc chemistry last year, now he want to change his stream to IT, With certificate course at IIT mandi in minor in computer science and then certificate course at IIT in cloud computing, will going to help him to get the good in lT sector? Or is there any other way to enter into IT sector? Please help sir

Ans: It will help him. It's the only way, because he can't go for a full time course of Computer Engg. for four years. But before the certification course let him study the syllabus and practise it thoroughly from the materials available in net and YOU TUBE. Once he becomes comfortable let him join the course. This initial practice will help him to complete the course more successfully. Best of luck. Just follow me. May God Bless You. Professor.............................:)
