Empowering IT Students for greater job prospects

By Manoj Shrivastava | Manager, Iformation Technology Programme

Placement Cell
Placement Cell

In a lieu with the programmes’s objective to empower the underserved youth to have better job opportunities and have greater job prospects, we have planned the below mentioned activities under the ambit of Computer Literacy Programme.

Initiation of placement cell

With a vision to empower the youth to have skilled jobs and better employment opportunities, the organization germinated this seed within the Information Technology Programme. This cell will smoothen the transition of our students into the professional world. 

Achievement

We have been able to tied up with 9 employers in Delhi NCR for placing our students from the IT centres. From the very first batch of Placement Cell, we have been able to place more than 60% of students. 

Workshops Conducted

Career Counseling Workshop

In one of our centers (Badarpur, a city in Delhi), Udayan Care organized a career counseling workshop with help of our corporate partner, Accenture. The workshop was conducted with aim to widen the knowledge of students regarding the available career opportunities after completing any particular course, for example HTML student can work in digital marketing companies as well as website designing agencies etc.

Poster Making Competition

In one of our centers (Vinod Nagar, a city in Delhi), Udayan Care conducted small poster making competition for students on the themes of Save Water and Digital Literacy. Everybody enjoyed the competition thoroughly and have made the best use of colors to bring out their perspective of saving water and digital literacy on to the drawing sheets.

Miracle of Hopes       

Sonia (Name changed) might just be another 19 year old girl but her achievements stand tall and speak volumes about her courage and hard work to change her circumstances. The boundaries of her Kalyan Puri slum became too small as she took a giant leap crossing them to realise her dreams. Undeterred by her father’s death and the inability of her uneducated mother to support Sonia, she nevertheless completed her graduation from Delhi University along with pursuing Udayan Care’s course in typing which ultimately placed her with AMS Comtel in their accounts department.

A stable job and a reasonable monthly income gave her the background to dream even bigger. She has also completed a Stenographic course from the Industrial Training Institute (ITI) and hopes to secure a government job soon.  She also has a brother to look after, who is proud of his sister’s achievements and wants to become like her.
