Ambuja Cements and ACC, the cement and building material companies of the diversified Adani Portfolio, are advancing their commitment to nation-building by upskilling India’s infrastructure workforce through support for the Executive Excellence Programme (EEP).

Since 2020, EEP has trained over 2,000 civil engineers and architects, with 175 professionals completing the programme in 2024 alone. The EEP offers short-term residential courses, which blend academic rigour with real-world application. The first two editions of the EEP were designed and conducted in collaboration with IIT Kanpur, followed by IIT Gandhinagar, and most recently at IISc Bangalore.

Participants gain advanced skills in asset management, sustainable construction, and emerging technologies—earning recognised certifications that boost industry readiness. EEP’s inclusion in the Skill India initiative and the Manthan platform, overseen by the Principal Scientific Advisor’s Office, underscores its growing national relevance.

The programme also fosters peer learning and collaboration—building a community of professionals equipped to lead India’s infrastructure transformation. Looking ahead, IIT Madras is being considered as a potential host for upcoming sessions, further expanding the programme’s academic reach and impact.

Adani Cement is setting a benchmark in industry-led skill development through its support for programmes such as the EEP, reinforcing its role in building a stronger, self-reliant nation.
