> As part of our educational initiative to promote open-source, Rahul Bansal our CEO interacted with students about WordPress and the opportunities in Open Source.

We have been working with educational institutes since 2014. Our open-source initiative, [rtLearn](https://learn.rtcamp.com/), is already popular in universities across India helping thousands of students each year embark on their professional journey.

As part of our continued educational outreach, we hosted the students of AISSMS’s College of Engineering. This visit aimed at promoting students’ interaction with working professionals and was followed by an address by our [Founder & CEO, Rahul Bansal](https://twitter.com/rahul286), who also happens to be alumni of AISSMS from 2006 batch.

During his address, Rahul emphasized on the importance of building identity on the open web and why choose open source technologies for university projects. Also, Rahul highlighted that students should learn a few technologies deeply rather than building resume full of keywords around trending stuff.

We hope they enjoyed learning about [\#WordPress](https://twitter.com/hashtag/WordPress?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) and [\#OpenSource](https://twitter.com/hashtag/OpenSource?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) as much as we enjoyed sharing our knowledge. 🌐 😄 [pic.twitter.com/NOgXG6uwQ6](https://t.co/NOgXG6uwQ6)

Hosting students was an excellent opportunity to inspire and educate the next generation of professionals. It was also refreshing for our team to meet with so many aspiring minds. We thank [AISSMS COE](https://aissmscoe.com/) for all the support and for being a part of this initiative. 🙏
