After a lot of heartburn since the past few months, trainees at the Infosys Mysore campus can now heave a sigh of relief. The company has implemented a new training policy based on the cumulative grade point average (CGPA).

Under this CGPA policy the trainees, who are able to get 4 out of 5 points get a third opportunity to clear the training programme even if they have not been able to clear the first two exams. If they clear the third test, they are retained in the company.

Mohandas Pai, director-HR, Infosys said, “The CGPA policy was introduced last year, but this year it has been changed. Now students have to get a minimum CGPA of 4 out of 5 points. Earlier the requirement of minimum CGPA to clear the training programme was not there.”
