Closing the gap between college certificates and production engineering.
While interviewing engineering graduates in Pune for our own software teams, we repeatedly saw resumes listing five programming languages and two “internship certificates”—yet candidates could not write a simple SQL join, explain an HTTP status code, or open a Git pull request. We redesigned ShiftToIT around one principle: train students the exact way junior engineers work inside Fair Share IT Services.
PARENT COMPANY CREDIBILITY
Backed by Fair Share IT Services Pvt. Ltd.
We are a registered software development and IT outsourcing company in Pune serving hundreds of clients in India and ~10 in the USA across fintech (MutualFundsKyaHai AMC Suite), SEO monitoring (WebsitesWatch.com), B2B staff augmentation (FairAGR.com), and EdTech (DriveLMS.com).
REPUTATION & INTEGRITY
Zero Free or Fake Certificates
We never sell or distribute attendance-only internship certificates. Every ShiftToIT certificate represents passed Minitest suites, reviewed GitHub PRs, and a defended application.
RADICAL TRANSPARENCY
No Inflated Placement Hype
We never advertise fake “100% placement guarantees” or invented salary packages. We guarantee serious engineering mentorship, real code reviews, and verifiable portfolio proof.
Led by experienced technologists and educators at Fair Share IT Services.

Do I need prior Ruby on Rails experience before joining?
No prior Ruby or Rails knowledge is required. However, you must know basic programming logic (variables, if/else conditions, loops) in any language (C, C++, Java, Python, or JS). Your engineering branch or degree stream does not matter if you can write basic logic and commit to daily hands-on practice.
Is this program suitable for 3rd-year (TE) and final-year (BE) SPPU engineering students?
Yes. Third-year and final-year engineering students from SPPU (Computer, IT, E&TC, AIDS, MCA, BCA) frequently need practical industrial training and a verifiable internship project. Our 45-day training + 45-day supervised internship structure gives you a live deployed project, a real GitHub pull-request history, and documentation you can present for college evaluations and campus placements.
How does the 45-day training + 45-day internship transition work?
Days 1–45 cover structured, milestone-based Ruby on Rails training where every assignment is submitted as a GitHub Pull Request and graded via automated Minitest checks and mentor review. Students who complete the 9 milestones and pass the Capstone code defense progress into the Days 46–90 supervised internship phase with Fair Share IT Services Pvt. Ltd. Selection criteria and terms are provided in writing before you enrol.
Why teach Ruby on Rails when many institutes only teach frontend React or basic Java/Python syntax?
Most students graduate knowing only isolated syntax or frontend templates without understanding how a complete web application works end-to-end. Ruby on Rails teaches full-stack software engineering—routing, MVC architecture, PostgreSQL relational schemas, migrations, authentication, automated testing, and production deployment—in one cohesive framework, while Fair Share IT Services actively uses Ruby on Rails in production portals.
