SKIPS believes that today recruiters are not looking for traditional business degree holders only but industry-ready management professionals.
St. Kabir Institute of Professional Studies (SKIPS) has made a name for itself in the field of Business Education in the country within only a little more than a decade of its birth. The PGDM course offered by them is rated as one of the best professional programs of Ahmedabad. Here are a few reasons that make SKIPS standout among the rest:
AICTE approved PGDM programme with Dual Specialization
SKIPS offers a unique dual specialization in the fields of Marketing, HR, Finance, Operations, International Business and Information Technology. This programme is approved by the All-India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), the national level council for technical education in the country.

As part of the PGDM programme at SKIPS, students spend about 45% of their time on academics while 55% is spent on actual skill development through interventions like Hands-on Training, Soft Skills Programmes, Language Enhancement initiatives etc. Course-specific lectures at SKIPS are enriched through activities like Case studies, Workshops, Internships etc, making them relevant to the demands of the industry. Development of Technical Skills at SKIPS is achieved through Industry recognized Training programmes. This enables SKIPS students to be corporate ready before they actually step into the job market.
Profile Enhancement Program
SKIPS believes that recruiters in the 21st century are not looking for traditional business degree holders only but people with more skills than what an ordinary managerial degree can give them. Keeping that in mind, students of SKIPS are encouraged to undertake different industry specific certification programs. Some of them are Digital Marketing Certifications like Google, Bing and Hootsuite, Insurance certifications from IRDA and Chartered Insurance Institute, UK. Mutual Fund and Capital Market Certifications are offered from NISM.

A Pool of Best in the Business Resource People
The resource person panel at SKIPS is another aspect that makes the institute stand out from among the rest of the Management institutions of the country. The panel includes Vice – Presidents and Founders of some of the most successful businesses in the country. These resource persons are experts in their own domain and are also experienced in terms of industry requirements. They add value to the academic curriculum by sharing their practical inputs from the industry point of view, giving students a real-life exposure to the business world and thereby guiding them towards a successful career path.
