Hackathons! 👨💻 The DMK government has been harnessing hackathons to enhance the problem-solving and critical-thinking skills of Tamil Nadu students. A total of 1,61,226 students have participated in these hackathons so far. Innocent Divya, Managing Director of Tamil Nadu Skill Development Corporation, said: "Gen Z thinks very differently – their processing skills are unique. When a challenge is presented, they are enthusiastic. Today’s generation is eager for challenges and, when they gain a new perspective, it could lead to the creation of a start-up." The winners do not receive cash prizes; instead, they get free access to courses and internship opportunities at top companies. The prizes include a ₹30,000 design course and a ₹20,000 UX course, among others. We are exploring the possibility of organizing hackathons that focus on recruitment. #tamilnadu #skilldevelopment #education #training #hackathon #management #leadership #motivation #inspiration #law #strategy #culture #technology #innovation #marketing #software #programming #design #ux
