1. What training do you provide at 3Edge?

3Edge is an IT finishing school based in Chennai. We provide classroom-based training in leading technologies like Java and Python, while also integrating AI-enabled tools such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, ChatGPT, and Figma Make.

2. What makes 3Edge different from other IT training institutes?

3Edge goes beyond theory. We are classroom-based and hands-on in Chennai, with AI-integrated courses, real-time mentoring, and a strong focus on employability.

Every student completes capstone projects and gains access to a direct placement pipeline. More importantly, we don’t stop at training — we provide internships with real clients, where you’ll work alongside engineers, ship production-ready code, and solve real business problems.

Employers today want graduates who can contribute from day one: professionals who have real-world coding experience, problem-solving ability, and strong communication skills. At 3Edge, we ensure you graduate not just with knowledge, but with the confidence and practical exposure to succeed in the IT industry.

3. Do you have any eligibility criteria?

Yes. Candidates should have completed UG/PG graduation with no current backlogs. Our primary focus is on 3rd-year engineering students from tier-2/3 colleges in Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh, but we also welcome working professionals transitioning into IT.

4. What is the recruitment process to join 3Edge?

  • Step 1: Write a Moodle test (assigned and guided by our coordinator).
  • Step 2: Based on your Moodle score, you’ll attend a one-on-one technical evaluation with a trainer.

Yes. We provide hands-on project work during training. Once you prove yourself, you can move into an apprenticeship or internship model within our network. Internships are a key part of our placement pipeline - they bridge the gap between classroom learning and securing a full-time role.

3. Will you help in interview preparation?

Absolutely. We conduct:

  • Interview practice sessions twice weekly
  • Mock interviews before every real interview
    This ensures you’re confident and ready for client-facing opportunities.

Bonus: We’ve developed an internal AI-powered interview prep tool, that generates technical questions for you to solve on your laptop and also evaluates HR-style responses allowing you to practice speaking and preparing for interviews.  

4. Can you name some of the companies where your students are working?

Our alumni are placed in reputed organizations including:

  • IT Services: TCS, Cognizant, Infosys, Wipro, HCL, Capgemini
  • Product & Media: Quickplay Media, Firstsource

5. What kind of projects will I work on?

Every student completes a capstone project, presented at a final showcase. These are industry-relevant and designed to impress potential employers.

1. Why should I invest in this program for my child

3Edge provides a direct pathway to employment at a competitive cost (₹40,000 vs. ₹80,000 industry average). With a strong placement record and training focused on real projects + AI tools, it’s a smart, practical investment in your child’s career.

2. Is AI integration just theory or practical?

It is practically implemented. Students use AI in coding, debugging, and prototyping as part of their classroom projects. But we ensure that software development basics are layered as the foundation to your student’s learning and growth. This is done before AI tools are provided to the student to further accelerate their development cycle.

3. How structured is the learning environment?

Our training is trainer-led, classroom-based in Chennai, ensuring discipline, focus, and real-time mentorship. Students attend classes on campus, work with their peers on projects, and eventually transition into an internship with experienced developers at 3Edge contracted on client projects

4. How do internships help my child’s career?

Internships are a cornerstone of our program. Every graduate gets the chance to work on real client projects before entering the job market. This ensures your child builds practical skills, gains workplace confidence, and has a much stronger chance of securing stable employment after training. Employers today look for real-world experience - we deliver that to you.

5. Will this benefit students from smaller/tier-2/3 colleges?

Yes that is our primary focus. We help bridge the gap between what colleges teach and what employers demand.

1. Why should GCCs hire from 3Edge?

  • Our graduates are AI-augmented junior developers or experienced career switchers, trained in strong fundamentals of software engineering and data science.

  • They come with practical project experience, making them job-ready from day one.
  • We’re cost-effective compared to traditional fresher hiring channels.

2. How are students evaluated?

  • Moodle tests and technical evaluations at entry
  • Continuous trainer assessments during training
  • Capstone project showcase at exit

Bonus: We’ve developed an internal AI-powered interview prep tool, that generates technical questions for students to solve on their laptops and also evaluates HR-style responses through voice interaction. This ensures the candidates we present to you are well prepared for their interviews, and arrive with confidence and clarity.  

3. Can you create custom programs for our hiring needs?

Yes. We co-create GCC-aligned training tracks customized by role, level, and tech stack, including industry-specific orientation (e.g., Banking, Insurance, Manufacturing).
