The training is module based and has both theoretical background and hands on practice. The modules are as given below (Scroll Over):
Specialised advice to assist you in reaching your goals.
Location and characterization of location specific services can improve business profits and utilities. Spatial technologies helps you to find prone service area, managing and monitoring of business activities, prediction of future possibilities etc..
Survey data is insufficient without its spatial attribution.Georeferencing of data links additional information and will help to survey efficiently over long period of time in industries like Agriculture and Forestry, Civil, Water Resources etc..
Earth analytics is one of most prominent field which improves functionalities of government as well industry sectors by analyzing spatial trends and impacts. It improvise dimensions of organization and activities as well.
One of the most promising technology is Remote Sensing and GIS(ranked 7) said by Fawwaz Ulbey. Knowledge of earth observation could be at center of growth of students and organization due to its vast applications domain.

Albedo foundation is really doing a good work in the area of GIS and Remote Sensing. It is the need of the time to get acquainted with these new tools and technics. The challenge of disseminating the knowledge of GIS and Remote sensing in the society, accepted by Albedo foundation is really appreciated. I wish all the best to team Albedo Foundation
VILAS K. PATIL, Associate Professor, KKWIEER Nashik
Very happy to have such an excellent institute with well-designed courses and faculties creating a lot of interest in the field of GIS and RS for students as well as staff.My best wishes to the team of the institute.
A. S. PATWARDHAN, Principal, KKWCAET, Nashik
I visited the foundation for the guidance of GIS regarding my BE project. Here I got the chance to learn GIS concepts very well and the institute has made us more aware of this GIS domain. I got the best guidance from team Albedo and I would appeal to others that get enroll in the institute asap. Thank You albedo and wish you all the success.
SAKSHI LAHAMGE, Project Trainee
I would like to say thank you to Albedo Foundation for providing one-month training on RS and GIS. Initially, I had no idea and I was completely unaware about geospatial technologies but after 1-month training, all the concepts related to RS and GIS was clear. I learned the software along with the background processes. Albedo Foundation is the best place for getting acquainted with RS and GIS software.
RUTUJA CHAUGULE, One Month Trainee
I am immensely thankful to Albedo foundation for providing the one-month training program. First GIS concept was completely new to me. The training provided by the aldebo foundation was helpful for me to know all the basic concepts and actually how interesting the GIS is. Theoretical concepts are also cleared along with software queries.
DHANANJAY AWTADE, One Month Trainee
Initially, I was unaware and totally blind regarding Remote Sensing and GIS. As four-month internship programme started I visualize that it is the best opportunity I ever got to gain knowledge on RS & GIS. The staff members also motivate students on Applications of RS & GIS on behalf of which I decided to do my post graduation Project on "Irrigation Scheduling" in the Department of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering with the application of Remote Sensing and GIS.
SHUBHAM GADE, Four month trainee
The team of Albedo Foundation has started GIS services in new areas in terms of the public. It is a proud thing for Nashik City to take up the task of training the new generation. The Lokpanchayat organization is implementing sustainable management process of natural resources from the people in the Western Ghats. In this work, Albedo Foundation has prepared very exact scientific maps of Devrai and grazing. It will definitely be used in the future by all the people who
VIJAY PRALHAD SAMBRE, Researcher and Member, Lokpanchayat, Sangmner
Albedo Foundation is doing commendable work in the area of Geo-Spatial technologies. With the diverse applications in variable fields, it is the need of the hour to train manpower in these new tools and techniques. The challenge of disseminating the knowledge and imparting the training of geo-technologies accepted by the albedo foundation is worth appreciating. My best wishes with the team of albedo foundation.
Dr. S. B. NANDGUDE, Director of Instruction, Dr. BSKKV, Dapoli
I had joined the Albedo Foundation for basic GIS training for two weeks. The class consisted of detailed lectures on the subject, its history, its scope in the future, and very good hands-on practice on QGIS software. Our sessions consisted of tasks each day and homework at the end of each session giving us enough practice. Albedo foundation is a great learning institute. Thank you.
