The pandemic has upended not just lives but the jobs scenario as well with enough being written about the new normal which all of us need to be prepared for. A real concern for most parents is how do they ensure their children are prepared for the changed career landscape of tomorrow or more specifically how to have them learn new skills that will get them there. uFaber, India’s only bootstrapped and profitable EdTech start-up offering hyper-personalized learning solutions for those aged 7 to adults, today announced “Real School” which it claims will help address the above challenge most parents are faced with. Targeted at those aged anywhere between 5 to 15 years, there will be well designed courses and masterclasses personally delivered by expert trainers on offer which will expand the options before today’s parents to get their children better equipped for careers of the future.

Rohit Jain, Co-Founder & CEO, uFaber, said, “It's amply clear and evident to both parents and educators that the answer to preparing the children of today for the careers of the future lies beyond the curriculum. Real School does that exactly by allowing the students to invest their time in pursuit of knowledge and skills of their passion and relevance. Here they are guided to acquire new knowledge and develop specific skills. We took close to 4 years and hundreds of many years of R&D by our internal team led by NirajTaksande and a group of Master trainers who kept tuning the offering based on initial learner feedback. Would be really happy to see this really enabling today’s children to pursue their passion and also in the process equip themselves for the future..”
