Infosys’ Chairman and Chief Mentor M.R.Narayana Murthy has described the training center, located 140 km off from India’s silicon valley, Bangalore, as the biggest corporate training facility in the world. “We are setting up the biggest corporate training facility in the world with 2,000 rooms which can house 4,000 people on a twin sharing basis. As we would be hiring roughly 12,000 people on an average, if we train 4,000 employees for four months, we should be able to turn around three batches in a year at this center,” he says.

Things you should not do in the Mysore campus:
- Smoking inside your hostel rooms, every room has a smoke sensor, you will be in great trouble. Get rid of these habits before coming to campus.
- Roaming late at night on campus roads with your new girl/boyfriend.
- Do not enter the campus gates when you are drunk, Infosys campus has the facility to carry out drinking tests in their own medical clinic. If you are found guilty, you will have to pay heavy penalties.
- Avoid playing games on your PCs or do not get caught.
- Do not entertain with the campus stuff, especially emergency alarms, fire alarms, etc. The campus has a full arrangement of CCTV cameras to record your activities.
- For Interns, Do not give your ID card to your friends to swipe in attendance on your behalf. It is a sin there. If caught, you will have to pay a high penalty for this.
** I have got queries on whether Infosys pays for your flights/or travel. You need to reach the campus on your own and Infosys does not pay for your flights. Check flights here.

Hi Zural,
Passport is not mandatory at time of joining. But it will be good if he can apply for the passport before he joins. He will have to submit the passport details in Infosys system within few months after joining. Yes, he can wash clothes by paying cash also. Also, he will soon get a debit card in few initial days itself.
Zural says
Hi admin,
My bro got placed in infosys and will be joining next month.
I need to know if passport is mandatory for joining since he doesnt have a passport.
Also I have read that for washing coupons, debit card is mandatory. Can we wash clothes by paying in direct.
Also within how many days, he will receive an ICICI debit card.

Thank you
Athira

Hi Sunny,
You will be given training from very basics for each module. Then you will have tests for each module as soon as the module is getting completed. If you can not clear test in the first attempt, you will get another chance for retest. If you can not clear internship then you will get another chance to come again and join as a regular trainee and do training again.
Admin says
Yes, if you have any valid reason you can inform your respective HR/Batch Owner.

Subhayu Biswas says
Hi admin,
Thanks for your update regarding the ‘Formal’ wearing rule. I was in the midst of my training when suddenly one day we didn’t had to wear formals anymore. It was kinda weird. Until then I used to wear a black jeans(I had 3 of them) and if the guards caught me I used to tell them ‘Come,on Dont you understand the difference between a formal trouser and a jeans’ 😛 😛
But remember trainees Dress Sharp and Smart !! shoes must be covered once !! Even kittos are a big no-no, forget about sleepers !! Look good, flaunt ur style !! And have a great time at mysore 🙂
My best time was at mysore and I miss it like anything ! 🙂
Admin says
Yes, if you have any valid reason for that.
Jayalakshmi says
Is it possible to take leave on the working days ie.,other than Saturday and Sundays ?
Admin says
No, you can not have desktops in your room. Infosys Labs will be opened till 11 PM, if you want you can go there and study.
kewal says
hey if laptops are not allowed then do we have desktops in our room? can we atleast keep them in our hostel rooms? if not then how do we access net for study purposes?
Admin says
No, PCs are not available in hostel rooms.
Subham Awasthi says
pc’s are avaialble at hostel rooms or not
Admin says
Thanks Subhayu for pointing this out – Infosys has withdrawn their “wearing formal” rule. I know for employees it is already withdrawn. But I was not sure about the trainees and interns. I am updating this in my article so that even if anyone miss to read your comment, he/she will get to know at least. Thanks once again 🙂
Subhayu Biswas says
ABOUT SMOKING: Well, you are not allowed to smoke inside the rooms because they are fitted with smoke alarms. But guys, every ECC(Employee Care Center) in which boys are going to get accommodated have SMOKING ZONES at the ground floor. So do not worry. At most in emergency cases you can smoke inside your restrooms but that too is not recommended. (Though I used to utilize the restroom when I was too lazy :P), But then you need to have a great Rapo with the your floor’s housekeeping fellow. If he is good then its ok(Like in my case, he used to inform me beforehand about any checking that was likely to happen :P), but if not, you are in trouble. BUT ITS ILLEGAL TO SMOKE INSIDE, So I recommend you to rush to the nearest smoking zone.
Subhayu Biswas says
To all the trainees who are newly joining…All the above information are to the point and perfect as provided by our admin…. Only change is that, Infosys has withdrawn their “wearing formal” rule. So you can wear anything from Monday to Friday. But please it must be decent enough… Like do not wear “gym shorts” or “Gym vests” or “Gym Tracks” to your classes and a strict no no for “Bathroom slippers”. BUT, Jeans and Loafers are WELCOME… You can wear them all the time to your classes all the Time.
Srikanth says

meghana says
Good afternoon sir…. sir I want to know about the courses we are going to read during training period. Is it very difficult???? sir plz do reply…
Admin says

Ramya says
Thank you for your reply
Admin says
Hi Ramya, No that wont be an issue 🙂
Ramya says
Hi sir, the address mentioned in my offer letter has a slight variation from the address proofs that i have…Will that be an issue?
Admin says
Hi Purnima,
For Non CS/IT folks, Infosys has a well planned structure for giving training. You will be given training from very basic fundamentals to high level. If you are interested in IT sector then this training will be very useful and memorable one for you. But if after joining training you lose your interest then it will be a big problem. So I would recommend you to think twice before leaving your core field ( Civil field) and switching to IT field.
purnima says
Hi admin
How useful is the infosys training for a civil engineering student?
sabika says
Thank u sir 🙂
Admin says
Yes you can use whitener for this 🙂
sabika says
The error was in date of signing . I didn’t leave blank space for it. It got printed as [date of signing] instead of [ ]. So they told me to use a whitener there.
Admin says
Hi Sabika,
IS the error on crucial part i.e. is it on your/surety/company name? Is it on 1st page or other page? If it is on other page and in some sentence then it is ok. But as you have already spoken to Infosys helpline and they are suggesting to use whitener, then you can use it without any worries 🙂
