SYDNEY (AUSTRALIA)/CHENNAI (INDIA): Polaris Software has partnered with the University of Western Sydney for contribution to local capacity building and help address the issue of IT skill shortages in Australia.

New South Wales government's Department of State and Regional Development, which helped Polaris launch its PACE Labs - a software testing automation and performance engineering Center of Excellence - in Sydney last year, would facilitate the partnership.

"The partnership will contribute to international research, skills & workforce building for Western Sydney and work experience & exchange programs for UWS graduates," said Beryl Hesketh, Dean of the College of Health and Science at UWS.

"It will also provide significant employment opportunities for UWS graduates and the Sydney workforce."

"The Western Sydney region was chosen because it is a major center for population growth and industry development and Polaris's corporate philosophy is aligned with UWS's strong commitment to community engagement," said Arun Jain, chairman and chief executive officer, Polaris Software Lab Limited.

The University of Western Sydney and Polaris Software will sign a Memorandum of Understanding on April 29 at the UWS Parramatta Campus.

Polaris Software is also in the process of establishing a software testing lab in Sydney.
