IPSR RHCE from the “resting place” of God

Pleasing, gentle and courteous, that’s what we felt after meeting Mr. Tim Kitonyi, Education Director, Institute of Software Technologies from Nairobi, Kenya- “the resting place of God”. Mr. Kitonyi holds a B.Sc. in Computing from University of Greenwich and he came to IPSR International Center, Kochi for doing RHCE Boot camp. He became very much excited when he began to speak about the whole training program and activities provided by IPSR:

"My experience at IPSR has been one of utmost satisfaction. These days most of the staff members helped me a lot. The CEO and other staffs were very caring whenever I wanted their assistance especially in arranging an exam centre when an unexpected national strike disrupted our plans.”

It was really a unique experience for Rajat Jaic and Rohan G Nair, the youngest RHCEs in the world when met with Mr. Tim Kitonyi at IPSR IT Finishing School, Kochi. He got wonder-struck and spellbound for a while when the two kids told him that their next target is RHCSS. About the stirring session the two little masters commented “it was really inspirational” where Mr. Tim points it out as a really “admirable” effort, the rest of the youngsters must follow.

We became very happy when he told that he had spent his leisure time visiting various places in the central part of Kerala. He got thrilled when he began to speak about the rustic backwater cruise and the bright green places of God’s Own Country. After the long description of backwater cruise we heard him say “the ambience of these places is matchless and great.” For boating he was accompanied by Mr. Robin Joseph, Manager, Business Development, IPSR Solutions, who remembers the trip “an unforgettable event in life”


At IPSR Tim spent his free time with the staff and kept a personal attachment with all. This may be the single thing that makes us to think of the “sweet sorrow” (“parting is such a sweet sorrow” Romeo and Juliet) of William Shakespeare at the end of our discussion. He shook our hands with a pleasing smile and began to write in the diary “You all gave me your best and almost everything was fine. Overall, I am greatly satisfied with IPSR and wish you all the best in future to keep up the good work that you do!”

IPSR is a great institute with lot of specialties, but all the more, what set it apart is its excellent faculty. I thank my lucky stars that I got such a great chance to come here and meet great mentors. Mr. Sanju was a great help in my studies and I thank him so much. I am indebted to him for my final days and he gave me very good support for the preparation of RHCE exam. Other faculty including Justin and Mojan helped me to groom my Linux skills and gave me tips to face real time difficulties. Thank you to all whose name I have missed here. You all are the best. I am taking home a sweet memory called "IPSR days". “It’s a small world after all!”

A sound growth from Novice to Adroit

The possibilities and opportunities to learn and grow in the realm of IT are limitless. I am very proud to say that I am one among the successful pupils who have been benefited from IPSR. I came here as a novice in Linux and now I can say that I am adroit in the field. I was very fortunate to have a very devoted teaching and non-teaching staff who know what they are doing. They played a vital role in making me reach at my current position. The infrastructure & facilities at IPSR, I can say, is one of the best in the industry.

I got quite a number of chances for attending interviews while I was in IPSR. It helped me to learn how to attend interviews and the various tips for a successful interview. I got great support from the IPSR placement Cell especially from Mr. Georgy who gave me a good opportunity to attend professional interviews. Now I am working in reputed company in Kochi as Linux System Administrator. It is all through IPSR.

I thank IPSR for helping me become an RHCE certified IT professional. It was a brilliant learning experience! I am much more confident about my future now.

Cheers!

IPSR RHCE from the Land of Dodo

We got a chance to meet Mr. Sumesh Ramdayal from Mauritius who had been here at IPSR for Red Hat's gold standard IT certification program, RHCE that molds strong Linux Administrators to implement and manage Linux networks in corporate. Sumesh took his Diploma in Hospitality Management from American College, Dublin, Rep. of Ireland. He is also a self-made entrepreneur who achieved two top honors of Mauritius Government, the Youth Excellence Award for young people aged between 14-29 and Best Entrepreneurship Award for thriving young entrepreneurs.

When we asked him of his experience at IPSR, he started enthusiastically and said, “It is elegant, the facilities are great, the weather is superb and some what similar to my country, but by far the best part of IPSR is the faculty and the calm atmosphere to learn and win your targeted IT certification. As an IT education institution, IPSR is very sharp and driven to really understand the fabric of students pulse especially students like me. But more importantly they are warm and welcoming and any visitor is quickly part of their tight-knit community. The CEO Dr. Mendus Jacob is highly inspiring and caring. The amount of learning between students is incredible, and my experience at IPSR has given me a window into the vivacity of Indians.”

In the holidays he found time to visit various places and he says the backwater cruise from Kottayam to Alappuzha was really an unforgettable experience. He got the company of French Couple Benat and Kamille on the way to Alappuzha and the parting was such a sweet sorrow when they told him “Tu nous manques!” (we miss you). Sumesh says about his trip to Mattancherry Palace, Kochi “I am so glad that I was able to experience Kerala on my own. I didn’t have to rush through places. I like to experience the history, nature, and atmosphere of the God’s own Country.”

The Kottayam Pakal Pooram was really eye-catching. About the festival he says “At evening when I heard the trembling echoes of drums I came to the crowded area. While walking around Temple I got a chance to meet mahouts and asked for some snapshots. They said sure & I took that very personally; I mean, I was feeling great passion!”

Sumesh Ramdayal along with Mr. Rajan (mahout) (Kottayam, Pakal Pooram)

Before we end up the discussion, he talked about the Periyar Tiger Reserve and Thekkady. He was very happy to see lot of elephants together. He says “it’s my first time I saw herds”. He showed us the life like pictures of elephants drinking water from small rivulets, roaring tigers standing so close and lots and lots. He spotted the location of Mauritius in Google Maps and emotionally explained the location by saying “its so close”. He stood up and said I may come back to IPSR for another course and like the French couples we too said “Tu nous manques!”

We Miss You!!!
