While speaking about Masai School, Prateek Shukla, CEO and Co-founder of Masai School said, “Despite possessing one of the world’s largest youth populations and a myriad of educational institutions and learning opportunities, a significant percentage of young individuals find themselves lacking the skill sets required in today’s industry.

One contributing factor to this issue is the absence of appropriate resources, a support system, and technical training necessary for young individuals to realize their aspirations of working with Tier I companies. This is precisely where Masai steps in, offering the youth valuable learning opportunities and playing a central role in guiding them towards new career pathways.”
