The Corporate Services Corps, a suite of investments and programmes to help IBM employees enhance their skills and expertise, has tied up with five non-governmental organisations and not-for-profit organisations in Hyderabad.

The programme brings 10 IBM professionals from seven countries (Denmark, US, Germany [ Images ], the Netherlands, France [ Images ], Spain and Austria) to Hyderabad to work on critical projects for them. Hyderabad, Pune and Bangalore are among the 17 cities around the world hosting the Phase-I of IBM's CSC programme this year.

"For IBM employees, CSC is a great learning -- working at the grassroot level," IBM director (India [ Images ], South Asia) Ramesh Narasimhan, told mediapersons on Thursday.
