Rajpura (Punjab) [India], January 07: In a move set to transform the landscape of financial education, Chitkara University, one of India’s leading educational institutions, has announced a strategic partnership with StockGro, India’s foremost experiential stock market learning platform. This collaboration aims to integrate advanced, hands-on investment and trading skills into the university’s curriculum, reflecting its commitment to making education more practical, skill-based, and aligned with the objectives of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.
The partnership will empower students to move beyond traditional classroom theory and gain direct experience navigating real-world financial scenarios.
