Crack Academy plans expansion across Himachal after govt collaboration

The Crack Academy on Wednesday announced the launch of 70 new coaching centres as part of its expansion across Himachal Pradesh. The move follows the academy’s collaboration with the state government for “Mere Shehar ke So Rattan” scholarship scheme, an initiative under which the meritorious students will be given free coaching for competitive exams.

The academy has invited applications for centre partnerships in key locations across the district, including Banikhet, Churah, Dalhousie and Bhattiyat.

“By inviting partners in Chamba, we’re not only strengthening the state’s educational framework but also empowering local stakeholders to become catalysts for academic excellence and job creation,” said Neeraj Kansal, Founder and CEO of Crack Academy. “Our mission has always been to make affordable, top-tier coaching accessible in every corner of Himachal.”

The academy aims to offer coaching for national-level competitive exams such as JEE, NEET, CDS, SSC, Bank, Railway and others. These centres are envisioned as community-focused learning hubs providing students with personalised coaching, expert mentorship and curated study materials.

Building on the momentum of more than 70 existing centres across the state, Crack Academy’s expansion in Chamba is expected to generate both direct employment at the centres and indirect opportunities through associated services, he said.

Over the past year, the academy has received thousands of applications from aspiring partners across Himachal Pradesh. With the new call for collaborations in Chamba, entrepreneurs, educators and community leaders have a unique opportunity to work with Crack Academy’s centralised selection team and contribute to transforming the region’s academic landscape, said Kansal.

He said interested individuals or institutions are invited to apply and become part of this initiative aimed at empowering youth and fostering sustainable development in the region.
