Google launched its Google Student Ambassador (GSA) programme to search for talent, and to make its latest products available among students. This year, around 1,750 candidates from 200 educational institutions from across India participated for the coveted GSA title for the academic session 2013-14.
Amidst strong competition, two engineering students from Lovely Professional University (LPU) got selected after clearing aptitude test and interview. Recently, these students Khageshwar Ijardar (from Chhattisgarh) and Bishal Sapkota (from Nepal), attended the Google India Community Summit-2013 in Goa, which brought together Google Business Group (GBG) Managers, Google Developer Group (GDG) Managers, and Google Student Ambassadors (GSAs) from across India. All gathered for an intensive four-day training program on community management, sharing best practices and product knowledge.
Being GSAs for one year, both the students will get the opportunity to participate in various Google training sessions to be held in 2013-14. Presently, encouraged at the summit, both are working on the first project ‘Vanity URL to LPU on G+ Page’. Bishal said, "As an ambassador, I will organise various Google sponsored programs like apps developing competition and other technical events on my campus.”
