In today’s world, Information Technology
is a key component of the success of any country. Unfortunately, the
high cost of education to acquire hardware and software related skills
in certain regions around the world prevents the poor from availing
these high-demand skills. Hidaya Foundation strives to bridge this gap
by offering basic software and hardware related technology training.
Currently Hidaya is executing or working towards following of the four
sub projects.

Under Software Engineering Skills &
Development, fresh and unemployed software engineering graduates are
provided internship opportunities by Hidaya Institute of Science &
