Three ways to take part
Whether you are a student looking for your city, an alumnus who wants ISDIC where there is none yet, or a college ready to host a centre — here is exactly what to do.
01 · Students, professionals and enthusiasts
Join a chapter
Chapters are city-based communities that run the published curriculum — workshops, labs, competitions and a flagship event in each domain — across the year.
Find your city on the chapters page. Active chapters show what they run and who leads them.
Register on the chapter page with your name, email, phone number and profession — that is all it asks.
The chapter contacts you about its sessions and events. Dates are announced to registered members first.
02 · Students and alumni whose city has no chapter yet
Start a chapter in your city
Chapters launch inside partner colleges: the college provides the space, ISDIC brings the curriculum, mentors and community structure. The quickest way to start one is to bring your college to ISDIC.
Check the chapters page. Several cities are already planned; if yours is, register interest through the partner form and say which planned chapter you want to help launch.
Talk to your college — the training & placement cell, a department head, or a faculty coordinator. Partnering costs the institution nothing.
Have them submit the partner form, or submit it yourself with organisation type "Other" and your city and college in the requirement box. The team follows up from there.
03 · Colleges, universities and organisations
Host a skill development centre
ISDIC partners with institutions at no cost. A centre goes live with the four domain tracks, and students organise into communities that run their own events with guidance from industry mentors.
Submit the partner form with your institution, your role and what you want to collaborate on — a centre, training and certification, industry projects, workshops, or a wider partnership.
The team gets in touch to agree the details — the space the college provides, and how the four domain tracks launch on campus.
The centre launches on campus and follows the published year: a quarter-by-quarter plan, three skill levels and a flagship event per domain.
ISDIC is free for students and for partner colleges. The forms above are the only step this site asks of you; the team takes it from there.
