JR Institute of Information technology (JRIIT) history is traced back in 1999 when JR Electronics LTD, a company dealing with IT communication and network branched itself to give a start to an education entity called JR Institute of Information Technology (JRIIT). Initially JRIIT scope of action was simply limited to train the workers (and candidates to employment) of the parental company. But soon JRIIT transformed itself into a fully Educational Institute embracing more local young people who were eager to learn new IT skills.
JRIIT is fully registered under the National Council for Technical Education (NACTE) with the registration number REG/EOS/017. Further, JRIIT has established partnership with other vocational entities such as CompTIA, Prometric and Pearson Vue.
