iON is a strategic brand of TCS which provides end-to-end technology solutions and platforms for small and medium businesses and educational institutions. In order to effectively contribute and deliver to the education eco-system, TCS is inviting prestigious educational institutions as business partners.

Assessment lies at the heart of any education system. In India, nearly 300+ entrance examinations are conducted every year for admission to various disciplines and institutions. At this juncture, examination boards and institutions need to leverage technology to streamline their admission and assessment processes so as to make them more efficient and transparent. We have created a simple solution to address this arena - iON Assessments.

iON Assessments is a set of business processes and software modules that help conduct computer-based assessments from certified assessment centres. iON Assessments comprises question bank (content) management, infrastructure management, assessment process management and online software solution management. One of the key requirements for administering iON Assessments is a robust infrastructure (desktop environment) that can be leveraged to drive efficiencies in conducting assessments.

We are working very closely with regulators at both central and state level, large private universities, associations of academic institutions and other platforms to impress the case for technology-enabled assessments. Our efforts are already bearing fruit. You will be glad to know that TCS has conducted digital assessments for India's premier Engineering assessment AIEEE, AIIMS and VIT for over 11000 candidates successfully. These recent successes stand testimony to the confidence in the academic community to make digital assessments a reality.

Do you want to join this partnership with TCS? Your association with iON Assessments as a Cloud Infrastructure Partner can be a way to get more out of your infrastructure investments in your campus. TCS will use the computer infrastructure at your institute on mutually agreed dates (mostly over the weekends) on a pay-per-node basis to conduct digital examinations.

Your centre will be assessed by TCS for computer infrastructure health, physical facilities and network quality. Subsequent to this, we will enter into a formal MoU and declare your institution as an "iON Cloud Infrastructure Partner" for the partnership ahead.
