Kota, India – Allen Career Institute, best-known as a premier institute for preparing students for the NEET-UG examination, has announced the launch of ALLEN NExT, a new initiative aimed at helping NEET PG students prepare for specialization and support India’s goal of reducing the shortage of specialist doctors.

ALLEN NExT will have multiple offline centers in 8-10 major medical education hubs including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Jaipur, and Patna. The centers will cater to the specialized needs of MBBS students at the PG level or those looking to supplement their MBBS classroom studies. To support the new initiative, ALLEN NExT is looking to hire across the board with a focus on sales, marketing, content, academics, and product. The goal is to bring the segment employee strength to 1,000+ by the end of the year.

In order to provide the best-in-class hybrid offering for students, ALLEN NExT is making a technology investment with the help of its strategic partner, Bodhi Tree Systems. The online setup aims to provide a highly productive and gainful user experience that considers the time constraints of medical students and practitioners.

According to Mr. Aman Maheshwari, Whole Time Executive leading the ALLEN NExT vertical, significant management bandwidth has been invested to make ALLEN NExT the preferred choice in the medical PG test preparation market. The institute plans to invest heavily in the first three years to secure a significant win in this new segment.
