The All-India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) today signed a partnership agreement with Adobe to accelerate digital creativity skills across the country. The partnership will empower over 75,000 faculty in 10,000 higher education institutions over the next 2 years with access to Adobe Express. Under the agreement, Adobe will offer courses and expertise for upskilling educators and integrate digital creativity into the curriculum, to better prepare students with the essential creative and digital literacy skills needed to thrive in today’s digital-first world.

Students are learning and expressing themselves in incredibly creative ways. Adobe Express is a new web and mobile-based app that makes it easy for everyone, independent of skill level, to create and communicate their ideas through great design. With thousands of templates customised for education, Adobe Express helps teachers facilitate more engaging instruction, while giving students helpful starting points to create and share everything from science fair posters to infographics, presentations, videos and much more.

The agreement was signed in commemoration of 75 years of an independent and progressive India, in the presence of Prof Anil Sahasrabudhe, Chairman, AICTE and Prativa Mohapatra, Vice President & Managing Director, Adobe India.
