Course Overview

techcadd's Basic Skill and Programs in Amritsar is aimed at students, graduates and working professionals — whatever they have or have not done before. The early modules cover Computer & Internet Basics, Typing & MS Word and MS Excel, so nothing later assumes knowledge you were never given. From there you take on MS PowerPoint and Google Workspace & Online Tools. The second half is where it turns practical: you work in Windows, MS Word, MS Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Google Docs the way a team actually does, against briefs that carry a real deadline. Each module ends in something you have built and a trainer has reviewed, so you finish with a portfolio, a CV built around it and interview practice for Office Assistant, Data Entry Operator and Computer Operator roles.

The terms

What Basic Skill and Programs actually involves

What Basic Skill and Programs actually involves

Every career now starts at a computer. This training builds the everyday skills employers assume you already have — documents, spreadsheets, presentations, email and online tools — and adds a first step into programming, so you finish confident and ready for any further course.

You start with computer and internet basics, then work through MS Word, Excel and PowerPoint, typing speed, email and Google Workspace. An introduction to programming with Python and basic web pages shows you what the next step looks like.

The live brief is a set of real office tasks — reports, spreadsheets and presentations — prepared to a workplace standard. You leave with a skills portfolio and a letter that names what you can do.

The honest pitch

Why this programme is worth your year

Why this programme is worth your year

Most basic skill and programs training in this region stops at the tutorial: you follow along, the notebook runs, nothing is retained. This programme is built the other way round — every module hands you an unfinished problem and a deadline, and a mentor reviews what you did with it.

That is slower and harder than watching lectures. It is also the only version that survives an interview, because the questions there are about the decisions you made, not the code you copied.

    Documentation, letter & placement

    An introduction to programming, a skills portfolio, then the certificate, the letter and interview preparation.

Module by module curriculum
6 modules, each ending in something reviewable that goes into your portfolio.
Module 01 of 06Internship & Training

Computer & Internet Basics

Computer & Internet Basics is where the Basic Skill and Programs track gets its footing. You work the concepts in the lab first, then carry them straight into the running project rather than leaving them as isolated exercises.

Skills you build

  • Operating system and files
  • Internet and safety
  • Email

Tools in this module

WindowsMS WordMS ExcelPowerPoint
You finish with

A reviewed piece of work demonstrating operating system and files and internet and safety.

Eligibility

Four kinds of people join this batch. You are probably one of them.

Who this course is for

There is no entrance test and no prerequisite degree. What the programme does assume is that you will show up for the full 45 days – 6 months and do the project work.

01No experience needed

Students after 12th

Nothing is assumed beyond a 12th pass and comfort with a computer. Basic Skill and Programs is often the first thing on an otherwise empty CV, which is exactly why it ends in a reviewed project rather than a certificate alone.

02Counts for college

Graduates & final-year students

If your syllabus mandates training, this satisfies it — and unlike a signature on a form, you leave with work you can show. Most of each intake is in their final year or just out of it.

03Evening & weekend

Working professionals

Two-hour classes either side of a working day, or a weekend batch across 45 days – 6 months. You are not asked to resign to retrain, and the project work is scheduled around the batch you pick.

04Immediately usable

Freelancers & business owners

You are here for the specific thing you keep paying someone else to do. The live brief can usually be your own requirement rather than ours, so the training pays for itself once.

05Gap explained

Career restarters

A gap on a CV is only a problem if there is nothing to put in it. 4 reviewed projects and a documented letter turn 45 days – 6 months into an answer rather than a question.

06Fills the gaps

Self-taught learners

You can already build something; what is missing is the review, the conventions and the evidence. You skip the early blocks fast and spend the time saved on the live brief.

Where it leads

The roles this portfolio opens

Job titles vary by company, but the underlying expectations do not. Each destination below maps to work you will have already done during the programme.

Future scope

Where basic skill and programs is headed from here

Where basic skill and programs is headed from here

A certificate answers what you can do today. This is the honest answer to what basic skill and programs looks like three to five years out, and why the fundamentals this course spends real time on are what carry you there.

  • Demand is structural, not seasonalEmployers keep filtering for candidates who have already done real, supervised delivery work, not just coursework — a documented internship is what turns a resume into a shortlist.
  • The skill ladder keeps climbingOffice Assistant is the entry rung, not the ceiling. Once that portfolio is in place, data entry operator is the realistic next step — a promotion earned on the job, not a second course you have to go back and pay for.
  • Tooling changes; fundamentals compoundWindows and the rest of the stack will look different in five years — they always do. What does not expire is the fundamentals this course is built around, which is why the syllabus is reviewed each intake instead of frozen once and reused.
  • Remote and hybrid widen the marketA basic skill and programs portfolio built in Amritsar competes for the same remote and hybrid roles as anywhere else. Companies hiring for this work are increasingly indifferent to which city the offer letter is posted to.
What you walk away with

The 45 days – 6 months programme is built around the part that is genuinely in your hands — and you leave holding all of it.

A reviewed portfolio, an industry-recognised certificate and a fundamentals-first foundation you can keep building on. Markets move, as they always have; that foundation is exactly what lets you move with them as internship and training work around you keeps shifting.

The working loop

Learn it. Build it. Make it yours.

Learn it. Build it. Make it yours.

Every project moves through the same loop: understand the brief, build it with guidance, then explain the decisions behind your work. The certificate is the receipt — the portfolio is the point.

Why techcadd

Why students choose techcadd

There are many places to learn this in Amritsar, and the brochure syllabus looks similar at all of them. What differs is who teaches, whether you ever touch real work, and whether anyone picks up the phone after you have paid. techcadd has trained students across Punjab since 2007 on the same model: small batches, working practitioners as trainers, client projects as coursework — and Basic Skill and Programs runs on exactly that model.

  • Trainers who still do the work

    Your trainer is not a full-time lecturer. They deliver client projects for the techcadd services arm, so the examples in class are current rather than a case study from five years ago.

  • Live projects, real consequences

    You work on genuine client requirements under supervision. That is where a portfolio comes from, and it is the first thing an interviewer asks to see.

  • Small batches and open lab hours

    Batches stay small enough that a trainer sees your screen daily. Lab time runs outside class hours, and doubt sessions continue until the concept lands.

  • Internship letter and certificate

    Every student finishes with an industry-recognised certificate and a documented internship on real work, accepted for university industrial training requirements.

  • A placement cell that persists

    Mock interviews, CV reviews and drives with hiring partners across Amritsar and Punjab — repeated after a rejection, not abandoned.

  • Since 2007, 15,000+ students

    Nearly two decades of hiring relationships in Punjab is why a call from our placement cell gets answered, and why local employers know what a techcadd certificate means.

I joined the Basic Skill and Programs batch with almost no background, and what made the difference was that computer & internet basics was taught by building rather than by slides. By the third week I was debugging my own code instead of copying someone else's.
Simranjeet KaurOffice Assistant, Amritsar
The project reviews are the real value. My excel expense tracker was picked apart line by line, and those notes are exactly what I ended up talking through in the interview that got me a data entry operator offer.
Manpreet KaurData Entry Operator, Ludhiana
Weekend batches meant I kept my job through the whole 45 days – 6 months. Anything I missed got re-explained without fuss, and lab access outside batch hours was never a problem.
Gurpreet SinghComputer Operator, Bengaluru
MS Word and the rest of the stack were set up on day one, so no week went into environment issues. Batches are small enough that a doubt gets answered the same day instead of piling up.
Karanveer BrarFront Office Executive, Mohali
I had tried learning basic skill and programs on my own twice and stalled both times. A fixed batch in Amritsar, a mentor who checks your work and a deadline on every module is the only reason I finished.
Jasleen GrewalOffice Assistant, Hyderabad
Placement support was not just a line on the brochure — resume and portfolio review, two mock interviews with people who do the job, and a referral into one of the hiring drives.
Harman SidhuData Entry Operator, Jalandhar
The syllabus is current. We worked in Windows rather than the older tooling most basic skill and programs syllabi around here still teach, and that came up directly in my first interview.
Neha BansalComputer Operator, Amritsar
The balance of theory to lab time is about right: enough to understand why something works, then straight into building. I left with 4 projects I can demo, not just a certificate.
Tanvir DhillonFront Office Executive, Noida
