Under the collaboration, SAP India, through Nasscom Foundation will impart basic computer skills at the NDLM centres in Delhi, Uttarakhand, Jammu & Kashmir, Karnataka, West Bengal, Gujarat and Tamil Nadu among others.

SAP India also plans to bring 15 of its existing training centres under the NDLM umbrella in the next couple of months, the company said. This is in line with the company’s commitment to train 100,000 individuals in digital literacy over the next three years.
