OUR SCHOOLS

AAETI

AAETI conducts its trainings through nine Schools (or departments), each of which focuses on a specific area of interest and a set of subjects.

The Institute usually conducts training courses and programmes which are focused and short-term – three days to a week-long in duration. Trainers and faculty are drawn from among subject experts and researchers working in CSE, as well as from other organisations and agencies. The courses are divided into clear modules, and the training methodology includes classroom lectures and discussions, field visits, interactive sessions etc.
