The real-time projects at ITKUL made a huge difference. By the time I attended interviews, I already had hands-on experience with Java full-stack development.
Anjali Mehta
I joined ITKUL with zero experience in data analytics. The structured modules and real-time projects boosted my confidence, and now I’m working in a data-driven role.
Smit Mahajan
The ethical hacking and network security labs at ITKUL were amazing. The trainers guided us through real-world scenarios, and I successfully cleared my first job interview
