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.”

Being a practitioner and trainer of UX Design and Design Thinking since 2014\, I was aware of the huge gap between theory and practice that exists in India even in the top institutes.

We trained them in various approaches to solve problems keeping the Human Factors in mind while not compromising on the business side of design. Being a practitioner and trainer of UX Design and Design Thinking since 2014\, I was aware of the huge gap between theory and practice that exists in India even in the top institutes. So we focused on problem finding right from the start\, and also about developing personas\, and taking it from there to concept design\, while passing through various phases like user journey mapping and other steps.” He quipped\, “Don’t worry all this would be part of my upcoming book – SOLVXD: Think in Steps – that would be coming out soon. \nSanjay Koshathwar\, Founder at Circulants\, said\, “Vineet is brilliant when it comes to Design Thinking. I have rarely seen another Indian who is as sharp with Design and Business. He never loses the sight of the final goal while dribbling the ball. Learning from him is an immense opportunity for my staff. I look forward to having him around more often.” \nNeelu Kapoor (Indiaskills Graphic Design Technology Jury) and Founder SXILL mentioned\, “This was the first time Chandigarh Design School tendered an Offline Workshop in Design Thinking at Circulants\, and we are quite excited by the quality of the staff at Circulants. Before this we had tendered Faculty Development Program at Chitkara\, Pune University\, Thapar University as well as student sessions for DY Patil University\, Panjab University\, Thapar University\, BITS Pilani and others.”

SUMMARY:Pune University Design Thinking FDP conducted by CDS Founder Chandigarh Design School Founder
DESCRIPTION:Chandigarh Design School Founder Vineet Raj Kapoor trained a select group of Pune University Faculty in Design Thinking. He took the important sessions on Design Thinking for “Impact of Storytelling” and “Case Studies – Innovation and Entrepreneurship”. The FDP was attended by 45 Faculty across Pune University. The FDP was held at ASSIM Engineering College\, Pune.\n  \nDesign Thinking FDP at Pune University by Vineet Raj Kapoor\nVineet Raj Kapoor (IDT Lead Expert Worldskills representing India\, and Founder SXILL and Chandigarh Design School) shared “Training Faculty from Pune University was a wonderful opportunity. The Faculty Development Program happened on 6 December 2024. We took care to equip them with enough examples and cases of Storytelling as well as for Innovation and Entrepreneurship\, in a manner that they are able to retain the information and put it in perspective since Design Thinking is a complex subject and is largely misrepresented. We trained them in various approaches to Design Thinking\, and especially sensitized and trained them in the toughest field of empathetic thinking\, since that is what most UX Designers in India lack. Being a practitioner and trainer of UX Design and Design Thinking since 2014\, I feel responsible for the state of UIUX Design in India. Despite our best efforts\, a large swathe of Industry as well as trainers are unaware of the possibilities of UX Design and think about it as a burden. We are doing our best to rectify the situation by giving great manpower to the starved Software Industry in India.” 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.”
