With a dream to bridge the gap between the education system and actual corporate requirement, Mr. Bhajan Mehta, CEO, SSDN Technologies started the journey of the training institute in 2010 at Gurugram, Haryana, to foster hands-on learning. His vast experience in IT and fondness to learn and discover since childhood attracted him to analyze the education and corporate market. He met many people who had capability, courage and dedication for doing big but again he found they had no proper job due to technical inability.
