Study9 is relatively a new training company founded in 2016 to feel the gap in the market for advanced IT training required to match up to the global IT up-skill requirement for SMAC (Social, Media, Analytics and Cloud) technologies. Leading this institute to new heights of achievements is Rituparna Mukherjee, a self-made woman entrepreneur with a background of training and teaching experience. Being worked as computer science lecturer of esteemed colleges in Kolkata, before venturing out into the world of corporate training, Mukherjee understands the importance of having quality trainers in the team to create success stories for students as well as the institute. She says, "Study9 is an 'internet first' training company. This is a carefully chosen mode of training, because it is almost impossible to get a quality IT professionals with a full time job role as trainers and expect them to be available for full day classroom sessions."

The trainers of Study9 are real industry professionals, working at an architect level with the 360- degree understanding of the technology.

Study9 does not compromise on the quality of the trainer and therefore adjusts the training mode and schedule as per the trainer's suitability. "We have given the students direct access to the trainers so that the relationship between the trainer and the student is built up. The trainers engage with students on a personal level as an industry senior than just being a distant trainer for a specific class," adds Mukherjee. Study9 focuses on getting top quality trainers, providing crisp and focused training over top quality internet based learning delivery infrastructure. "Industry professional cannot take long daily classroom sessions due to the demands of their day job. Instead of compromising trainer quality, it is better to compromise on the mode of training," opines Mukherjee.

The trainers of Study9 are real industry professionals, working at an architect level with the 360- degree understanding of the technology. In the course of last one year, Study9 has trained various students from the Global Indian Diaspora and the students would vouch for the quality of trainers provided by Study9 to be of top class. "The community of alumni is very strong and they are actively engaged with the organization even after their training is over. This only goes to show the high satisfaction from the training and the bonhomie between students and teachers," claims Mukherjee. Although young, some of the esteemed companies in the industry such as TCS, Oracle, Comptel, Cignex and many more have picked Study9 up as their training partners.

While many institutes focus on building a lengthy course curriculum to show a potential buyer that they are providing more for the same money, Study9 has taken a distinctively different route of keeping things focused. In Study9, the duration for a Hadoop and Big Data Administration training is between 20 to 25 hours, depending on the batch's speed of adoption. Study9 offers certification preparatory courses for Cloudera and Hortonworks certification curriculums. The institute has online batches of individual students and the corporate customers of Study9 can have both online and classroom training modes in either customer's own premises or in the Study9 training facilities in Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Delhi and Kolkata. "We are keeping up with the market and bringing constant updates to our curriculum to make our trainees ready for becoming the best in the domain. We are planning to expand our operations to other parts of the country, starting with Mumbai and Pune," concludes Mukherjee.
