  • Abstract:
  • This study investigates the role of EdTech training and internship programs in enhancing the skill development and employability of college students in Chennai, with a particular focus on WeSkill Edutech Private Limited. Using a structured questionnaire, data were collected from students who participated in WeSkill's programs. Statistical tools including Chi-square and ANOVA were employed to examine associations between EdTech participation and variables such as skill enhancement, job readiness, and user engagement. The findings indicate a significant and positive impact of these programs on both hard and soft skill development, as well as increased confidence in employability among participants. The results support the growing relevance of EdTech platforms in bridging the academic-industry skills gap. This research underscores the importance of integrating practical learning opportunities into higher education to improve student outcomes.
