The Indian state of Tamil Nadu has partnered with Q-CTRL, a global leader in quantum infrastructure software, to launch a groundbreaking quantum computing education initiative. This collaboration will integrate Q-CTRL’s Black Opal, an award-winning quantum learning platform, into the Tamil Nadu Skill Development Corporation’s (TNSDC) Naan Mudhalvan Upskilling Platform. The program will make quantum computing education mandatory for engineering students across Tamil Nadu, aiming to upskill millions in this critical technology.
With the global quantum workforce facing significant shortages, this initiative is seen as a strategic move to bridge the skills gap, with India positioned to play a key role in the emerging quantum economy. The partnership underscores Tamil Nadu’s leadership in the quantum technology sector and Q-CTRL’s commitment to making quantum education accessible worldwide. Quantum AI Global has been engaged to support the rollout, emphasizing a diverse and inclusive approach to quantum education.
The Black Opal platform offers interactive learning modules, skill badges, and customizable course content, empowering students and educators alike. This initiative is expected to set a precedent for other regions, contributing significantly to the global quantum workforce and advancing quantum technology education.
