As a well-established investor in the education sector, CBA Capital understands its potential as well as the challenges faced by the industry. That is precisely why the trust bestowed by them assumes greater importance for us as we know and highly regard CBA as an organisation which is an active, and influential player in the domain. Apart from being able to leverage their guidance and mentorship, the capital infusion will enhance our ability to reach out to students all over the world and bring us one step closer to redefining the relevant-skill based training landscape globally.” Imarticus Learning has trained over 30,000 students globally and aims to skill 55,000 students by 2020.
