Fronius India conducted the first valedictory ceremony of FACT program on 29th May 2023 by celebrating growth and success of the students, nominated by ITIs in Pune. FACT (Fronius & Academia Centre for Skill Training) is an ambitious initiative by Fronius India aimed at producing skilled and industry-ready welders. Industry experts have designed this program to ensure the holistic development of students who are prepared to meet the demand for skilled welders in India and abroad.

The valedictory ceremony marked a significant milestone in the journey of the FACT program. It was time for reflection on the student’s achievements, acknowledging their dedication and hard work, and celebrating their acquired knowledge and placement offers from reputable organizations. 

Below are a few highlights of the program that boosted the welding skills and employability of the students:

  • The students engaged in teamwork and collaboration, gaining knowledge of various welding techniques, joints, parts, machines, and combinations. 
  • They received training in computer literacy, soft skills, and corporate etiquette, which enhanced their ability to excel in placement interviews and boosted their confidence in the corporate environment. 
  • The students also formed strong relationships with their peers and mentors, fostering a supportive and inclusive work environment. 

In his valedictory address, Mr. V. V. Kamath, MD, Fronius India mentioned, “It was a fabulous 45 working days with the remarkable 23 students of our first FACT program. The premises was filled with energy, and it was a completely different atmosphere around an institute. We were thrilled with the enthusiasm of the students for learning, absorbing as much as possible during these training sessions and this urge of learning will make them successful in the future. This is just the first baby step for them, the sky’s the limit for these young kids if they keep learning and absorbing things as they did in FACT program. We are delighted by the trust and support received from the ITIs in Pune through nomination of the students for this program and taking feedback from time to time for the development. This positive attitude is immensely encouraging for us to continue our path to provide skilled welders for manufacturing companies. I congratulate all students and teachers for successfully completing our first FACT program, this is just a start, we have many more to come!”
