"Congratulations to the PROFICIENCE on its Silver Jubilee. The initiative for continuing education by the IISc has been a boon for those who have aspired for higher education in the scholarly ambience of the hollowed centre of excellence in the country. It has serviced as a wonderful platform for industry – academic interaction so vital for the development of a knowledge base in a dynamic economy.

In my personal experience, several young and middle aged executives have benefited from the exposure gained through this department and gone on to achieve greater heights in their professional pursuits.

May the department continue to be a window for future generations to learn, interact and grow intellectually."
