ACADEMIC ALLIANCES
HCL UNVEILS INITIATIVE TO CREATE INDUSTRY READY ICT PROFESSIONALS
Launches Second HCL Career Development Center in Chennai, offering
specially designed courses in Infrastructure, Middleware and Networking
Resonance is a leading coaching institute for IIT-JEE and other entrance
examinations, based out of Kota (Rajasthan). Since its inception in 2001,
Resonance has witnessed unprecedented success in terms of results in
various competitive examinations and growth in students' enrollments by
winning the trust of thousands of students and parents across the country

3-Purpose / Objective of the Project
To reach near to student-:
One of the main purpose of project is to reach near to student to fulfill
their demand of a perfect computer learnings institute.
Brand awareness of HCL CDC-:
HCL is a very popular name in the industry but HCL CDC is new to the business
for IT training. For the reason we the members of the retail team were given the
task of Promoting HCL CDC’s name. Our task was to promote HCL CDC as a
premium training and development.
Promotion of the products offered by HCL CDC-:
The products of HCL CDC are the career and the modular courses that
they offer. IT related courses but courses also related to Sales & Marketing (Sales
pro), Inter-Personal Skill building (SDF) etc.
Generation of customer base for the centre -:
One of the major objectives of the project also includes creation of DATA Base for
the company and generating Business for the company. The data base created
would help HCL CDC to further transact with the prospective candidates. This also
helped us to know that how target customers can be approached, how to convince
a customer and how an actual business is done with the clients.

Scope of the Project
1) Market:- Howrah market is a very huge market where HCL CDC can
have great potentials to expand. Here if HCL CDC acts proactively in
the market, then it can become a premium IT training institute in
Howrah.
2) Advertisements: HCL CDC is brand which is unaware to the
public so it needs to understand how to reach the mass audience. For
the purpose, HCL CDC can advertise through hoarding mainly in front of
the schools and colleges.
3) Data collection: a perfect data should be collected about the taste,
choice, preference, competitor strategy, market demand.
4) Conducting examination:-after tiding with different institution,
schools, colleges it is necessary to conduct a examination to take over the
qualified students
5) Estimation of requirement:- what is the basic student
requirement,this should be known.
6) Instant Activities: Road shows and on the spot admissions can be
an good option to reach to the audience.
7) Survey: Survey programs can be of great help to access the need in
the market and the latest trends demanded in the market. This would help
HCL CDC to act proactively in the market to adapt new Technologies.

Limitations of the Project
i.Lack of Awareness: Awareness regarding the IT industry is very limited in Howrah. With
the limited knowledge of the industry among the general public, HCL CDC too is an unknown name
in the industry. As HCL Info-systems Ltd has recently come up with its education wing, it is in the
introduction stages. At many institutions when only about CDC is expressed, it creates difficulties
to deal regarding business.
ii.Time Constraint:Howrah market is a very huge market. Due to the time constraint, the entire
market cannot be covered.
iii.Response: Poor response from the respondents generally from the Non-Technical back
grounds. Girls too were very apprehensive to contact or to share their data during cold calls.
iv.Wrong Information: The project was based on the surveys and data collection. The data was
collected through primary and secondary resources. Most of the times the data provided
by the candidates on the road or during formal tech registration are wrong. Sometimes it
so happen that a few companies information available on internet sites were not updated.
v.Communication: At the time of counseling of the students, many of the students were not
conversant with English or Hindi. It created a new hurdle to convey the proper message in
Bengali
vi.Co-ordination: There are many separate teams working at HCL CDC to get business. An
organization approached by a team was also approached by the other team.
vii. Examinations period:-Examination were conducted at most of the schools and
colleges. So most of the candidates were not interested during the examinations
seasons. Most of the institutes too were not interested to allow us to conduct a seminar
regarding any of the courses offered by HCL CDC.

viii. Most of the placement consultancies we visited were not interested in providing details
of the candidates for the programs HCL CDC offered. They replied as it was against
the rules of charging any amount from the candidate for the placements.
ix. Some of the institutes were unhappy with HCL CDC’s prior performance. This created
some more difficulties to talk regarding any business with those institutes.

METHODOLOGY
Methods used to promote HCL CDC:-
Exam Conducting
Data Collection
On The Road Activity

• In a period of trainings, my team member are performing various activity
relating to our project. To perform our task very efficiently we are given some
responsibility & authority. In my team four persons are present and all person
performing their separate task. In these task, someone going to collect data
relating to schools, colleges, institution, etc, someone going to tie up with
these colleges, institution for furthers activity. After this my job is to conduct
a examination of 10, 10+2,k students to check their intelligency. This
examination are resonance-hcl xcelerate exam, career ACE & core programs.
After taking examination of the student results were evaluated. This results
are attached in next pages……….
Exam Conducting

My another method to to promote HCL-CDC is to collect
data, information relating to the taste, choice, preference,
competitor strategy, market demand and after collecting this
data we act according to this collected information.
These data are (mainly related) as follows :----
Taste of the student about the computer institution.
Choice of the student about the computer institution.
Marked demand in which we set up our HCL-CDC.
A perfect competitor of HCL-CDC.
These competitor strategy,
Our market strength.
Brand name of HCL-CDC in market, etc.
Data Collection

My another method to to promote HCL-CDC is by doing road
activity. In present days of marketing, road activity is very
popular than any others mean of promoting a product or

other company. In road activity the mainly work is done by me is-
distribution of phemplates, discussion with 10, 10+2,
undergraduate student, collecting their phone numbers, etc. the
data relating to this matter ia attached in next pages…………..
