Workshops for Students
For well-paid jobs in multi-national companies, it is just not sufficient to have techno-academic acumen and certification, but equal emphasis is needed on overall professional readiness. There is an unquestionable paradigm shift in thinking of multi-national companies; of late, their demands of having industry-ready professionals are both dynamic and challenging. Organizations around the globe recognize that, in order to gain a competitive advantage, their employees need to know how to learn on their own, what makes one a good professional and handle themselves at work. Though India is a major provider of IT to the world, most of the Engineering and Management Graduates in India are known for glaring lack of soft-skills, particularly in professional attitude and communication. Industry experts opine that in order to sustain and compete in this dynamic global competition, soft-skills should be imbibed early and as part of the regular curriculum.

Learn to Learn
In any learning situation, learner needs two kinds of knowledge: knowing the subject at hand and knowledge about how learning works. According to John Dunlosky, professor of psychology at Kent State University in Ohio, first kind of knowledge is imparted in most of the educational institutions, but there is little emphasis on training students how they should go about learning the content and what skills will promote efficient studying to support robust learning. Life-long learning being the global norm, it can be promoted by acquiring both the subject knowledge and right learning strategies.

A Winning Attitude
Success is greatly determined by attitude, because a winning attitude energizes one’s mission, transforming raw potential into sheer power. When students believes that they can achieve anything they want, an endless series of possibilities open up for them – creating real opportunities for advancement. Future success is not limited by failures in the past, but by the willingness to take the right actions, right now. Robert Schuller, a renowned motivational writer states “Success is never ending & failure is never final”. A negative, self-defeating attitude destroys all hope of career success whereas a positive, proactive attitude guarantees it. Winners understand that success depends on the support of others. With right thinking and a positive attitude towards others, they get right support from others. They learn to value others by cultivating listening skills and they practice liking people until they do it genuinely. They learn generosity, to give selflessly and unconditionally to others, and winning friends through conversation.

Web-Wise
The internet provides an opportunity to communicate, learn, play and be entertained by content from around the world. It offers information on any topic at a click of the mouse. It is an incredible tool, no doubt about it. While the internet provides many positives there are also risks. Irresponsible social media conduct could potentially ruin students’ education and negatively impact their career, not to mention, hurt others in the process. Cyberbullying, inappropriate content, identity theft, scams and exposure to adult content can make the internet a risky place for students. The risks exist for all, from pre-schoolers who are only starting to use a computer, to more experienced teens, and also adults. But most of those consequences are preventable, often with just a little foresight.
