The beginning
Mahesh Typing & Shorthand Institute opens with three typewriters and a focus on GCC typing and shorthand training.
Founded in 1984 by Vijaykumar Dahale, Mahesh Computer Typing & Shorthand Institute has grown from a small typing and shorthand classroom into a modern computer-based training institute focused on practical skills, competitive examinations and career readiness.
In 1984, Vijaykumar Dahale founded Mahesh Typing & Shorthand Institute with just three typewriters. The idea was simple but ambitious: give students a disciplined place to learn a skill that could open the door to employment.
As more students enrolled and results followed, the institute steadily expanded. Three typewriters became thirty-six. Year after year, students trained here went on to clerical posts, municipal bodies, stenography and court services, other government departments and private-sector careers. Over time, some alumni progressed to senior positions in public service and the judiciary.
What remained unchanged was the institute's focus on regular practice, accuracy, individual guidance and preparing students for the actual demands of competitive and employment-oriented typing examinations.
Mahesh Computer has continually adapted its training environment to match the way typing skills are taught, tested and used in modern workplaces and competitive examinations.

Student strength increased steadily, the institute expanded its training capacity and generations of learners prepared for government, judiciary and private-sector careers.
As computer-based work became the standard, Mahesh Computer began its structured migration to computer typing under the GCC-TBC framework.
Typewriters have been completely replaced by computers. Two dedicated air-conditioned labs with around forty systems now support GCC-TBC, MPSC skill tests and court typing preparation.
As office work and competitive typing examinations moved to computers, Mahesh Computer transformed its training environment as well. Beginning with only six computers, the institute steadily expanded its digital setup. Today, typewriters have been completely replaced by computers, with two dedicated AC labs and around forty systems used for regular practice and examination-oriented training.
The Government Certificate in Computer Typing Basic Course (GCC-TBC), conducted under the Maharashtra State Council of Examinations, Pune, combines computer typing with practical digital skills. The official curriculum covers computer fundamentals and operating skills, MS Office applications, internet and email, practical office-oriented typing work and speed-based typing assessment.
Alongside GCC-TBC training, recent years have seen Mahesh Computer develop specialised preparation for MPSC and court typing skill tests. The figures below are based on institute records for the highlighted batches.

From manual typewriters to computer typing and modern skill-test software, training evolves with the actual exam environment.
