To cater to beneficiaries in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, all content will be augmented with commentaries in multiple Indian regional languages, including Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Tamil and in some international languages, enabling beneficiaries across the globe to transcend linguistic barriers.
Infosys' collaboration with Skillsoft strongly aligns with the company’s vision to democratize quality learning for lifelong learners. This collaboration, aided by commentaries in Indian regional language and international language subtitles, will transcend geographical boundaries and offer solid learning opportunities to learners across the world.
