SUMMARY:Chandigarh Design School Founder is NSDC Certified UIUX Expert
DESCRIPTION:NASSCOM Certified UIUX Design Trainer\, Vineet Raj Kapoor\nVineet Raj Kapoor (Indian IDT Expert Worldskills\, and Founder SXILL) shared “I am happy to share that I have successfully been certified as Certified Trainer for the Qualification Pack of User Experience Designer (SSC/Q8404) – v2.0 conforming to National Skill Qualification Framework Level – 5.” \nNASSCOM’s skilling initiatives aim to bridge the skills gap in the IT-BPM industry and empower individuals with digital skills. They offer various programs\, including FutureSkills Prime\, which focuses on emerging technologies\, and initiatives targeting marginalized youth and women through the Skilling and Employability program. Today NASSCOM is the IT-ITES Skill Sector Council for Government of India\, under NSDC. \nNeelu Kapoor (Indiaskills Graphic Design Technology Jury) and Founder SXILL said “This Certification brings more transparency to the UIUX Design learners of India\, since many of them have lost precious time and money to spurious online courses with dubious certificates. UIUX Designer Certification through NASSCOM/ NSDC ensures that our students get verifiable credentials that stay behind them all their life and are also part of the NSQF and get entered in their APAR Accounts aka Academic Bank of Credits. This is the only government recognized Certificate Course in India.” \nNASSCOM Certified UIUX Design Trainer\, Vineet Raj Kapoor shared that they are starting a special course for practicing UIUX Designers as well so that they can shore up their skills while also acquiring the missing qualification. There is a longer UIUX Design course for fresher wherein we have a sprint based learning methodology akin to the actual workplace environment.”

SUMMARY:Speaker at Gamification Conference at DES Pune University
DESCRIPTION:Speaker at Gamification Conference at DES Pune University\nKeynote Speaker at Gamification Conference at DES Pune University\nChandigarh Design School Founder Vineet Raj Kapoor delivered his keynote speech at the International Conference on “Activity Based Language Learning: Challenges and Opportunities” that was organized by DES Pune University in collaboration with ICSSR and Coolture Desighns Pvt. Ltd. on 7 February 2025. The topic for the Panel discussion was Gamification in Education and Knowledge Systems. \nConference was attended by about 100+ Faculty and Students across India.\nVineet Raj Kapoor (IDT Lead Expert Worldskills representing India\, and Founder SXILL and Chandigarh Design School) while sharing valuable insights into Gamification\, he said\,”Gamification is often used an excuse to micromanage learning. It defeats the entire purpose of gamification. Rather one should always be mindful of the core attributes of Gamification like Volunteerism\, Choices\, Willingness\, etc. He also said that the Game Mechanics should be very simple and consist of very few elements like in Chess\, or sports like Badminton. He said the Leaderboards and Feedbacks were the Killer Features of Gamification and should be implemented in the right manner for engagement to happen. Right to Learn is a great concept that I have often used to bring determination to the table. Story is an optional feature\, but used well\, it can enhance the quality of learning. He quipped\, “Don’t worry all this would be part of my upcoming book – SOLVXD: Think in Steps – that would be coming out soon. \nNeelu Kapoor (Indiaskills Graphic Design Technology Jury) and Founder SXILL mentioned\, “This was the third time Chandigarh Design School tendered a Faculty Development Program at Pune University. Earlier we have done programs for Thapar University\, Chitkara University\, GNDU\, Panjab University among others. We are also doing international Programs in Design Thinking with leading institutions abroad. We are aware that training a faculty is much more important as it can directly impact the lives of 1000s of students.”
