OUR MISSION
1. OVERSEAS EDUCATION
With the recent liberalization of the economy in the Indian sub-continent and growing affluence of the large middle class, study in foreign countries is no longer just a dream for many students from the sub-continent. It is indeed a very viable option. Students from the sub-continent are interested in foreign universities to pursue their higher education goals and tap the international career opportunities. The Indus Foundation guarantees admission in foreign universities for all students from the Indian sub-continent, provided they meet the minimum admission criteria of the foreign universities.

The Indus Foundation is an organization of professionals working as authorized representatives and promoters of foreign universities in the Indian sub-continent. We offer a comprehensive package of services to take care of all processing and application needs of Indian students for study in foreign countries.

Students are given a wide range of options to study in the U.S.A., Canada, the U.K., Australia, New Zealand, Germany, France, Ireland, Malaysia, or any other country.

Good quality education is always in great demand. In today's competitive world, entrance tests such as GRE, GMAT, SAT, TOEFL, and IELTS play a very important role. Admission into a large number of good foreign universities is based on tests in which thousands of students compete with each other. Students have to appear for one or more of these tests and do well for assured admission (with financial assistance) into a good university. Students look for good training institutes through which they can prepare for various entrance tests. The Indus Foundation, with its vast experience and latest training materials, is best suited for students to do well in the entrance tests and fulfill their aspirations of studying abroad.

The Foundation strongly believes in providing honest, up-to-date and accurate information with friendly and courteous service. It is an organization where students can go for counseling and information. Information dissemination and personal counseling are made available to students from all over the Indian sub-continent. Our experts are thoroughly familiar with the educational systems of the Indian sub-continent and those of foreign countries. They are ideally equipped to assist students to go through the maze of admission processes of foreign universities.

2. IT EDUCATION
Information Technology is fast becoming the nerve center of any organization. As part of the globalization process, companies and organizations the world over are integrating themselves with the world economy. They are increasingly using the latest technologies to improve quality, enhance employee productivity, and increase customer satisfaction. Organizations continue to upgrade, standardize and integrate their systems to develop and sustain their competitive edge. This globalization process has generated a huge demand for qualified and well trained professionals. The Indus Foundation is in the business of equipping professionals with the tools they need to become dynamic contributors to the organizations they serve.

India is currently in the midst of an IT revolution. From a global perspective, India has enormous strengths in terms of its skilled workforce, robust education system and responsive markets. Virtually every segment of industry - from banking to defense - is going in for large-scale computerization in order to cope with new market realities and gain global competitiveness. Rapid automation however, is creating a tremendous need for appropriately skilled professionals who can spearhead IT implementation within their organizations.

The Foundation delivers quality software training for individuals and companies. The Foundation is committed to innovating, refining and fine tuning its offerings to suit the needs of students, professionals and employers. Our suite of education programs encompass every kind of learner, from a young person taking his first step into the world of computers, to a student seeking a career in IT, to a professional gaining cutting-edge technology skills.

The Indus Foundation has a young and nimble team with passion for delivering superior software solutions, products, training, consultancy and customer service. Being customer driven, the Foundation constantly strives to provide the highest quality services to its customers. We strive to design training programs to meet the needs of individuals and organizations by incorporating the latest technologies in our training modules and ensuring that the best of trainers are available to deliver the same.
The Foundation believes that for the computer revolution in India to become all pervasive, it is important that young people in schools and colleges be empowered by inculcating computer skills. The Foundation welcomes partnerships with schools across the country for this purpose.

3. DISTANCE EDUCATION
Distance education is an emerging global phenomenon that promises to alter fundamentally the nature of traditional education and training. The increasingly pervasive nature of the Net and the Web, and the collaborative infrastructure provided by net-centric computing have led to the growth of distance education. The phenomenal growth of distance education is explained by the fact that over 90% of college students access the Internet, with 50% accessing the Web daily. Also, companies and organizations are spending huge amounts on in-house training and education programs through distance mode. The popularity of distance education programs has further increased with the availability of on-line discussion forums due to enhanced bandwidth. Now even the most geographically remote students can get the education they want.

Distance education is education designed for learners who live at a distance from the teaching institution or education provider. It is study with an educational institution that provides organized, formal learning opportunities for students. Presented in a sequential and logical order, the instruction is offered by distance study, through virtually any media. Historically, its predominant medium of instruction has been printed materials, although non-print media is now more popular. It also incorporates or make use of videotapes, CD or DVD ROMs, audio recordings, facsimiles, telephone communications, and the Internet through e-mail and Web-based delivery systems.

The Indus Foundation in academic collaboration with American, Canadian, and other foreign universities, offers an array of degree, diploma, and certificate programs at Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctoral levels in a wide range of fields. Distance education is offered as a dynamic, interactive distance learning method using toll-free telephone lines, as well as a diverse array of personal computers, video devices, CD and DVD ROMs, online courses over the Internet, interactive devices, and other modern technological innovations. When each lesson or segment is completed, the student makes available the assigned work for correction, grading, comment, and subject matter guidance by qualified instructors. Corrected assignments are returned to the student. This exchange fosters a personalized student-instructor relationship, which is the hallmark of distance education instruction.

At the Foundation, students are required to take examinations in a proctored setting. Assignments are larger, longer, and more thorough so as to test for knowledge by forcing the students to research the subject and prove that they have done the work. Quizzes are a popular form of testing knowledge and many courses go by the honor system regarding cheating. Midterms and Final examinations are held at a common location so that professors can supervise directly.

4. EDUCATIONAL COLLABORATION
Educational collaborations promote universal and equitable access to education, and develop in students the knowledge, confidence, and requisite skills to become lifelong learners and economic competitors in a dynamic global marketplace. Today, success is determined by access to knowledge. It is no longer an option – it is a mandate for survival. An important mission of the Foundation is to galvanize high-impact educational collaborations between educational entities in India on the one hand and those in the USA and Canada on the other. The Foundation acts as an internationally recognized support system for 21st Century education for bridging the education divide.

Indian educational system has been in transition in the recent past. India has the world’s second largest post-secondary student population of over 11 million. It is expected that this number will double over the next 12 to 15 years. Further, Indian economy is transforming into an international powerhouse requiring India to have the best possible educational opportunities for its citizens. Faced with a growing demand for post secondary education and limited resources, India is looking to the private sector and foreign universities to bridge this expected shortage. India is a member of the WTO and has now become a signatory to the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS), thereby enabling high quality educational services to be offered in India from around the world.

The Indus Foundation recognizes that collaborative graduate and post-graduate programs, twinning programs, certificate programs, study in India programs, and partnership programs between Indian institutions and American / Canadian universities are extremely useful in meeting the rapidly growing Indian educational needs. These programs contribute to the goal of preparing students to compete in the global economy.

The Foundation is committed to assisting well established and reliable Indian institutions for collaborating with accredited American / Canadian universities for offering their degree, diploma, and certificate programs in India. It assists Indian institutions for developing twinning programs, setting up study in India programs, and establishing academic partnerships with accredited American / Canadian universities. Its staff has expertise in the Indian, American, and Canadian educational systems. Over the years, the staff has developed extensive contacts with a wide array of accredited American and Canadian universities.
