Byju’s, a well-known Indian tech company, is in serious trouble. Vinay Ravindra, the chief content officer, and his ally Rajendran Vellapalath are facing big financial penalties in the US. A judge is looking into their actions of taking money and assets from companies that are under court control.

Last Tuesday, a judge named John T. Dorsey said he might make Ravindra and Vellapalath prove why they shouldn’t be punished for their actions. If they can’t explain themselves, they might have to pay a lot of money in fines. Byju’s owes over $1.2 billion to lenders and bought two US education companies for $820 million a while ago.

Byju’s founder, Byju Raveendran, is dealing with bankruptcy in India after failing to pay US lenders. A Nebraska businessman named William Hailer shared that he spent months trying to help Raveendran regain control of Byju’s US software companies. However, the attempt failed, and he ended up accusing Raveendran of using bad business practices.

The lenders want the judge to punish Ravindra, Vellapalath, and Vellapalath’s tech company, Voizzit, for allegedly taking more than $1 million in cash and valuable resources from the US education companies, Epic! Creations and Tangible Play.

Vellapalath joined the court hearing via video from Dubai. He claimed that Voizzit owned Epic! and Tangible Play, and since Voizzit loaned Byju’s over $100 million in 2023, it had the right to take control. However, the judge did not find his explanation believable.

Byju Raveendran is trying hard to take back control of his struggling education tech company. Meanwhile, he faces accusations of hiding $533 million that should have been paid to creditors. Byju’s is also dealing with financial problems in India, where a court expert is trying to find ways to pay back the lenders.

The Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IITM) Pravartak Technologies Foundation is working with Cambtech Training and Placement firm to offer new certification programs in the Supply Chain and Logistics field. These courses are designed to give students a realistic work experience in a “Virtual Office,” where they can learn just like they would in a real job.

Students will also use an artificial intelligence platform that creates a virtual business environment for them to practice tasks like handling financial transactions in real-time.

The available courses include Supply Chain Management, Port Management, Chartering Practices, and International Liners Trade. Upon finishing the program, students will receive a certificate from Cambtech and IITM Pravartak.

Prof. Mangala Sunder, the founder of Digital Skills Academy at IITM Pravartak, stressed that the aim is to equip college students and workers from various industries with the skills they need to find jobs or learn new skills. “The training will prepare students to take on competitive exams in Supply Chain and Logistics confidently,” said Prof. Sunder.

Vaishnavi B Iyer, CEO of Cambtech, also highlighted how essential upskilling is today, encouraging candidates to prepare for successful careers in Supply Chain and Logistics. The unique virtual training platform created by Cambtech will let students learn in various ways.

The foundational knowledge for all training will come from expert lessons by Prof. G. Srinivasan, who has been a part of IIT Madras for over 30 years and has experience in international management.

The first batch of these courses will start on January 1, 2025, and registration will close on December 25, 2024. Interested candidates can sign up through the provided link.

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is thinking about a new idea: offering two levels of science and social science classes for students in Grades 9 and 10! This plan is similar to what they already do with math in Grade 10, where students can choose between a standard level and an advanced level.

The new idea is just waiting for approval from the CBSE governing body. If it gets the green light, it will follow guidelines from the National Education Policy (NEP). This means some students can study subjects at a regular level while others tackle advanced topics.

A senior CBSE official explained that the goal of this plan is to help students who are good at science and social studies prepare better for the tougher subjects they’ll face in Grade 11.

However, there are still a few things to figure out, like how to organize exams and create the right study materials, since the new textbooks are not yet ready. CBSE is also planning to have two rounds of board exams, but the schedule for that has been delayed.

This idea comes from a report made by a group led by K. Kasturirangan, the former chairman of ISRO, and is designed to support the changes in education proposed in the National Education Policy 2020.
