Hello everyone,
Greetings of the day!!!
My name is Prince, I reside at Durgapuri (North East Delhi) along with my parents and younger brother. After completing my schooling, I was looking for an opportunity to pursue a professional training course which would help me to find a decent job through which I can provide financial assistance to my parents whereby I partake in bearing household expenses. My parents have struggled a lot in raising us and bear our education expenses, my father is working in a factory as labor and earlier my mother used to do some work from home (stitching) but when I and my younger brother decided to pursue commerce stream in 11th grade, that was the time when our coaching fee became an extra burden for my family due to which my mother decided to work in the same factory where my father was working to fulfill our needs and give us a better life.
One day, I was discussing my situation with one of my close friend who then too an initiative to connect me with Udayan Care Computer Learning Center, initially I had joined Durgapuri IT center for completing Basic IT course, after that, I got an opportunity to join Graphic Designing course at Vinod Nagar IT Center. 6 Months of intense training gave me wings to fly and as soon as I completed my training in Graphic Designing I got selected in "FANZINEINDIA" as a graphic designer with Rs. 10,000/- salary per month. It was just the beginning of my career, my parents felt proud and were overjoyed because our life started experiencing a pleasant change, where it would improve our livelihood.
I am so grateful to Udayan Care and all the supporters who have provided us a platform where we groom ourselves in specific skills as per our interest and start growing in our career. After receiving my 1st salary, I went to Vinod Nagar Center (Graphics Design Center) to meet Nishant Chauhan sir ( Our Graphic Faculty) to express my gratitude because he has invested his time on me as to train me in a manner which has changed my life completely, the same day I met a resource person Ravi Rautela, who was there to conduct a session for the existing batch of Graphic Designing.
Ravi Rautela is a Graduate and an Engineer in Electronics, with rich corporate and Educational Experience of more than 15 years he is now a known face in industry and academic institution. He has delivered workshops and seminars on various topics aiming at strengthening the corporate skills of this generation and helping them to put a firm step in the industry. He started his career with Jetking Ltd, followed by HCL Career Development Centre. He has imparted training to large number of students in 4 years with a trainer base of more than 100. During his tenure, he has visited many colleges in north India and conducted workshops and training programs in colleges. He was kind enough to voluntarily conduct a one-day workshop at our Udayan Care Vinod Nagar Centre on 11th January 2020, titled was “Design Contest” It was a structure three hours workshop and 30 students took part in the same. The topics covered were making Logos, Designing letter Heads, visiting cards and ID Cards. He also conducted an icebreaker session to ensure that students get comfortable. The workshop commenced with an activity where the students were divided into small teams and were asked to give a name to their specified team along with a slogan accompanied with action. Later the students were asked to share about their past and future in the form of a sketch, next Mr. Rautela shared his experience and he gave some tips to become a good graphic designer, he further elucidated on what qualities one should possess to become a successful person in future. The students found it a very fruitful workshop and gave very positive feedback on it.
The session was ended on a beautiful note by the end of the day, and as a gesture of kindness, I donated a small part of my salary in "Alumni Network Fund" which actually gave me a satisfaction and I believe that through this I can benefit of lives of other children and help them to acquire skills and give back to society.
