In today's age, every individual must be able to use the internet and have computation skills. Considering the importance of information and technology, Hon. Sharad Pawar Saheb, President of the Yashwantrao Chavan Center, had suggested to the trustees that the center should set up an information and technology academy for imparting computer training to the youth. He also instructed that all the secondary schools across the state should be connected via computer and develop an education-to-home scheme. Accordingly, Yashwantrao Chavan Center signed an MOU with C-DAC, Pune on January 4, 1999, and launched the Academy of Information and Technology (AIT). The Diploma in Information Technology (DIT) was launched by the academy on May 10th, 1999.
The Center for the Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) is an Indian autonomous scientific society, operating under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology. C-DAC has designated Yashwantrao Chavan Center’s Academy of Information and Technology (YCC-AIT) as an official training facility.
