Are you curious about what it takes to work in the exciting world of tech? Interested in different career paths, but not sure where to start? Virtusa is hosting a series of tech-focused webinars to help students and recent graduates learn more about the industry trends and what opportunities await! AI/ML is a high intensity industry word. The industrialization of these technologies is in the early stage and just accelerating. Academia, industries, and the start-up ecosystem are consistently evolving their efforts based on learning from implementation. However, the path to coded engineering discipline is still in the making.

This workshop will be a hands-on introduction to the C programming language. Prerequisites: Familiarity with some other programming language A great deal of high-performance computing software is written in C, but few universities offer courses in the language any more. If you have to work with "legacy code" written in C, adding features, porting to a new machine, or patching errors, or if you need to write user-defined functions for engineering packages such as Fluent, then this workshop is for you. You do need to have a laptop with a Mac, Linux or Windows operating system (not a tablet, Chromebook, etc) on which you have administrative privileges, as you will need to pre-load specific software packages. Participants must register using their institutional / organizational email address (not a personal email, ie. gmail) Instructions for how to join will be sent out one day prior to the start of the event.

This session will offer attendees an honest and frank conversation around marketing dos and don’ts in this pandemic/epidemic world. The New #Marketing Madness: To-Dos and To-Don’ts Finding, engaging and offering “the right” customer a reason to “choose you” should be every business’s challenge. Companies with the mindset “build it and they’ll come” will not survive in this pandemic/epidemic world we now live in. They need to dig deep and understand ‘human’ needs, be honest and unique in their positioning and promise, and ensure ongoing value and appreciation that brings people back. With countries now settling into a post-Covid world, significant shifts in human behaviour and demands due to the pandemic, evolution of technical services that have streamlined the purchase process, and this new age of audience engagement, companies need to be more effective with their marketing efforts. Being good doesn’t work anymore. Being better through creative, focused, and relevant marketing activity delivers success. Without understanding, you underdeliver. Without clarity, there’s confusion. Without focus, you fail.
