Yes a very valid point. We do not suggest students to not complete their graduation since in India companies today; still give importance to degrees rather than skills at the entry point. Our mission is to build careers hence we recommend the following

• Those who do not do their graduation, would anyways land up being only technicians, but this course will give them a career path comparable to a graduate, which is earning about 6 lacs per annum within 2 years of work exp. Probably he may take a year extra to reach a level that a graduate can reach in the same time but he/she is starting work, earlier than a graduate so it makes up for it.
• Even if you were to do a graduation doing this course would give you the opportunity and the skills required for a fast track career in the IT Infrastructure domain.

This course will give the diploma holders the knowledge and the skills required to compete with any graduate in this field. Probably he may take a year extra to reach a level that a graduate can reach in the same time but he/she is starting work, earlier than a graduate so it makes up for it.

Talking about discrimination - as things stand in India, the only discrimination would come in the form of different starting salaries but after that - work experience, skill and expertise will take them forward. If a starting salary for a diploma student is 10,000 to 12,000 (usually the starting salary for diploma holders would be in the range of 8,000 to 10,000) for a graduate it could go up to 15,000. Lastly this course will give the diploma holders the knowledge and the skills required to compete with any graduate in this field.
