IIT Kanpur Launches SATHEE Platform To Support SSC Aspirants

The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kanpur has recently launched a new initiative called SATHEE SSC to help candidates prepare for various examinations conducted by the Staff Selection Commission. Previously, this initiative was announced for the candidates preparing for the competitive exams (JEE and NEET) across the country. Now, the candidates preparing for the Staff Selection Commission recruitment exams can also benefit from this initiative. This initiative, supported by the Ministry of Education, reflects the strong commitment of the government to provide affordable and quality education to the candidates/students, especially students from economically weaker backgrounds, and to ensure that they have equal access to preparation as their peers.

How to register?

As of now, the platform SATHEE is offering the course and study material for the SSC MTS (Multi-Tasking Staff). In addition, the platform will be offering more exams in the SSC category. Candidates can now register for the free coaching on the SATHEE portal or through the app which can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play Store.

According to the official website, the crash course started on the portal from July 10. Registration for the exams is ongoing on the official web portal for 4,887 vacancies. The last date for submitting application forms on the SSC portal is July 31.

The acronym SATHEE stands for Self-Assessment Test and Help for Entrance Exams. It offers a wide range of study materials including practice tests, video lectures and interactive sessions led by expert instructors. SATHEE aims to increase the accessibility and effectiveness of SSC exam preparation for all students by using technology and pedagogical expertise.

Professor Manindra Agrawal, Director, IIT Kanpur, highlighted in an interview that the SATHEE SSC is in line with the objectives of NEP 2020. He stated, “With the launch of the SATHEE SSC, we continue our commitment to provide quality education to everyone. This initiative represents a significant step in leveraging technology to empower students across India and prepare them not only for exams but also for a promising future.”
