NIIT to set up delivery centre in Dublin creating 110 jobs

Skills and talent development firm NIIT today said it will set up a delivery centre in Dublin, creating 110 jobs over five years.
The development is supported by the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation through IDA (Industrial Development Agency) Ireland, NIIT said in a statement.
The focus of the announcement is NIIT's Corporate Learning Group (CLG) which delivers comprehensive managed training services including Custom Curriculum Design and Content Development, Learning Administration, Learning Delivery, Strategic Sourcing, Learning Technology and Advisory Services.
Ireland was chosen as the location for the new European Delivery Centre due to the availability of suitable creative and technical talent and multi-lingual skills, the cluster of existing learning technology companies and open business environment, it said.

NIIT, which was established in 1981, employs about 3,000 people in over 40 countries with primary locations in India, the US, Europe and China.
The new roles will include high-end engineers, creative writers, and digital media professionals. Other roles will be for trainers, multilingual customer service support, and project managers.
"Europe is an important and growing market for NIIT's Corporate Learning Group. Ireland was our country of choice for its extremely conducive business environment, strategic location, availability of multilingual creative and technical talent, and investment potential," NIIT President Corporate Learning Group Sapnesh Lalla said.
