From High School to Hired: How P-TECH Opens Paths to High-Demand Careers
Overview
byteXL brings real-world, industry-aligned tech training into college classrooms—equipping students with the skills to launch their careers.
India is at a turning point. With more than 65% of its population in the working-age group, the country has a rare opportunity to turn its youth into a driving force for economic growth. But there’s a catch: many young people are finishing school without the skills employers need.
Only 45% of college graduates are considered job-ready, and diploma and degree holders face a five times higher unemployment rate than high school graduates. The issue isn’t a lack of opportunity—it’s a mismatch between what students learn and what employers expect.
Turning Potential into Job-Ready Talent
byteXL is closing that gap. By helping them build the right skills early, byteXL has already supported 200,000 students to become employable and start strong. They do this by:

- Redesigning how teaching happens through interactive learning with byteXL’s easy-to-use tech platform
byteXL partners with colleges to integrate hands-on training and in-demand tech skills from the start. With nearly 700 in-person trainers and 100,000+ active users across 34 institutions, their model blends online and classroom learning. With consistent checkpoints along the way, students learn at their own pace while preparing for real jobs.
