If you have noticed, there was a competition for student for Asia region. I hope you have participated in it.

So Forum Nokia is actively arranging such competitions time by time. You just need to stay tuned.

There are several competitions that we have been doing and one include the one which Kiran mentioned. All you have to do is subscribe to our news letter and do regular visits to Forum Nokia. You can see more in the coming months.

Also I suggest to actively participate in Forum Nokia communities to share and earn knowledge. So that you have more reasons to become a Forum Nokia Champion. Its always good to have Forum Nokia Champion logo in your resume and it could help you to get a job once you pass out of the college. Have a look at Forum Nokia Champion Program

Hi Gopal,

Well its good that Forum Nokia india is doing well, but its mostly more in j2me than symbian. It will be far better if nokia can give more information on Symbian and its UI, i mean the training stuff provided should be more emphatic and should be able to answer the queries that learners ask interms of symbian. I did like to know more about this.. As my previous experience with Nokia training on symbian was not up to the mark..as informed by the participants.

Thanks and Regards,
Mateen Maldar

Hi Gopal,
Ya you guys are arranging talks but isnt it more restricted to Hyderabad and Bangalore. College students at other places, also need to be involved? They can be done by like arranging Nokia Events in Technical Festivals of different colleges.

[balagopalks]

We have received similar requests to conduct events in other cities as well and will be considering this request while planning for future events.

@ Mateen Maldar : We are constantly improving our docs, tools and trainings. I will pass your comment as well to the team

Thanks
Gopal

Well, To add : we are not much concentrating in Bangalore and Hyderabad, In case you missed, we have been doing events in other cities as well like CodeCamp in Pune, Talks at MobileMondays and BarCamp's at Chennai, Mumbai, Technical sessions at Ahemedabad, Trivandrum, Bhavnagar and so on.. Hope you can understand that it will be tough to do sessions in each city in India, but we will consider depending upon the number of requests received and the target audience.

Ya i do understand that India is a large country. You guys are doing great job no doubt about it.

hi to all and subhendra
you are correct these guys are doing a lot but then also there should be something more. as still students dont know much more about mobile application development.
we along with forum nokia can serve for the cause better.

[balagopalks]

Thats the spirit Gargi! Really appreciate! Together we can create more awareness and bring more developers/students to the wonderful world of mobile application development. Let us know how we can help you guys.

thanks Mr.Gopal for the appreciation
i personally think that students actually don't know how attractive and interesting is this world of mobile application. moreover students don't know what sort of privileges and benefits we get here in forum nokia. if they become aware of all these i am sure we will see another revolution.

[shubhendra]

Ya, students really don't even see the tip of iceberg. This field is so vast to work upon and so much diverse, basically problem is there is no course in colleges on mobile development atleast in bachelor of Enginnering course. And i think only techfest of IIT Bombay and IIT kharagpur arranged for competititon based on Mobile application development this year.

[gaba88]

hi subhendra
i dont know if any IITs coducted the mobile application competition or not.
But Nokia can motivate students and research fellows by some sort of training and internships.
i want to know that from the experts does a student can get a training in nokia and if yes what is the way.
