The programmes will be held in both online and offline mode, with offline sessions available in Kolkata, Howrah, North 24-Parganas and South 24-Parganas.
The WBCHSE has published the schedule for the first batch of the online mode.

A three-day session on Computer Science and its applications will be held from April 22 to 24.
Designed to bridge the gap between secondary and higher secondary education, the programme aims to introduce students to updated curricula, including emerging fields such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Data Science, Cyber Security and Applied AI.
