Shailaja Anand Deole: B.Voc in Early Child Development (Navy Nagar, Mumbai)
This programme is really helpful from the beginning as it stresses upon practical
experience and not just promotes theory. Since I am assisting a teacher, I get a hands on
experience in managing children in classroom. It’s very convenient for me since, both
practical and theory classes are conducted in Navy Nagar. This course will help me get a
job as a teacher in the future. This course enables me in securing a job as an early
childhood educator and gives me the confidence to start a crèche. The focus on english language fluency
is an added advantage.
Aasawari Raut: B.Voc in BFSI (CIBMRD, Nagpur)
I am pursing B.Voc in BFSI from TISS-SVE at CIBMRD, Nagpur. I am completely
enjoying my on-the-job training at Arvind Sahakri Bank Ltd., where I am assisting in
deposits and loan department. It feels good when I see operations in bank and
connect them with whatever I have studied in my classroom training. Trainers are
really good, they teach us well and in a very easy manner. I am so happy that I got
this opportunity at an early age.
Taskeen Khan: Certificate Course in Inbound & Outbound Tour Operations (Costa
Training Institute, Mumbai)
This course by Costa Training Institute under TISS-SVE has provided me the concept and
knowledge in the field of travel and tourism. It offers a broad range of opportunities in
the field of tourism destination and attraction, airlines and hospitality.
Rahul Mohanty: B.Voc in Electronics (Funfirst Global Skillers, Noida)
This course has helped me to improve my skills on electronics and its devices and also
learn about the manufacturing of mobile phones. After the completion of this course, I
