Blue Ocean Corporation, which is into logistics and supply chain training, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) to formally integrate its Foundations of Supply Chain Management (FOSCM) course, accredited by the Association for Supply Chain Management (ASCM), USA, into the list of AICTE-approved programs for Indian universities.
Blue Ocean having trained over 500,000 professionals across the world over the past 28 years is currently undertaking expansion across India, to make international-standard supply chain education accessible to students across major academic institutions, it said.
“We believe that the future of supply chain excellence lies in early, high-quality education. This partnership with AICTE marks a decisive step in making globally benchmarked learning accessible to Indian students at scale,” said Sathya Menon, group CEO, Blue Ocean Corporation.
“The inclusion of international certification programs in the Indian academic framework enhances employability and broadens the global outlook of students. With access to AICTE’s National Internship Portal, learners will benefit from exposure to leading industry environments,” said Dr. Chandrasekhar Buddha, Chief Coordinating Officer, AICTE.
The partnership builds upon an earlier agreement between the two institutions under which university students enrolling in Blue Ocean’s supply chain programs were granted access to AICTE’s National Internship Portal, offering them real-world exposure through internships with leading corporates.
“Blue Ocean always believes in making a real difference, especially when it comes to empowering young minds. This partnership is very important to us as it takes global-quality education into Indian classrooms, where it matters most,” said Sourav Ganguly, member of the board at Blue Ocean Corporation.
