The landscape of business has changed a lot in this era of globalization. Majority of big business houses operate in a borderless world today. And Indian corporations are rapidly reorganizing to take advantage of this new opportunity presented by globalization of markets and that of production. It is already evident in services sectors like IT, Telecom, Banking, Finance and Insurance. In fact, globalization is a characteristic feature of "knowledge economy" which is fast outgrowing the "old economy" and even transforming the later in sectors like infrastructure, energy and transport.

Accordingly, the spectre of professional education, particularly that of business management and engineering education have been changing too fast in the wake of globalization. Educational programmes and institutes need reorientation to adapt to a new and very dynamic reality with a world of complexity in it.Unfortunately, a large number of institutes seem loosing on many important fronts like technology, knowledge resources, management of learning processes and global networking. This has created a vacuum in both teaching and learning process and in turn has led to passing out of large number students who fail to meet the quality requirements of corporations. According to a recent report in the Times of India, the IT and BPO industry sources estimated that only 25% of MBA and engineering graduates passing out in the country could meet the quality requirements. This indicates an alarmingly widening gap between demand and supply of quality personnel in India.

This has been a real challenge before the education fraternity - to rapidly evolve and adapt to the new paradigms of global corporations and measure up to their requirements of quality. While globalization and global competitiveness need to be welcomed for the opportunities they bring, new entrants are required to enter into the market with the DNA of global networking, educational technology and world-class Knowledge professionals to make an impression.

Knowledge Trust, a brain child of a group of accomplished promoters with excellent professional track record, has been established in 2006 with a mission to address this demand-supply gap of quality technical and managerial personnel. Knowledge Trust has the DNA to ride on the waves of opportunities coming with globalization and is all set to achieve world-class quality standards in professional education on all fronts by 2012.
