Career Guidance and Placement Cell
A student must possess more than just academic knowledge in order to succeed in today's dynamic and competitive world. It is necessary for them to receive guidance, support, and opportunities in order to bridge the gap between education and employment. As a bridge between academia and the professional world, the Career Guidance and Placement Cell (CGPC) plays an important role in supporting this transition for students.
A CGPC's primary goal is to provide students with the necessary skills, knowledge, and resources to make informed career choices and excel in their chosen fields. This centre provides a range of services tailored to meet the diverse needs of students and alumni within educational institutions.
An important function of a CGPC is career counselling. Students receive personal guidance from experienced professionals while exploring various career paths, identifying their strengths and interests, and developing a clear career roadmap. Students gain valuable insight into different industries, job roles, and career trends through one-on-one sessions, workshops, seminars, and psychometric assessments.
In addition, CGPCs facilitate industry interactions and collaborations, providing students with opportunities to interact with employers, industry experts, and alumni. It organizes campus recruitment drives, job fairs, and internship programs that facilitate the connection between students and prospective employers. A CGPC ensures that students have access to a variety of employment opportunities across industries by fostering strong partnerships with corporations, start-ups, and government agencies.
Additionally, CGPCs provide students with skill development programs and training workshops to enhance their employability. Students are provided with the skills necessary to succeed in the job market by these initiatives, including resume writing, interview preparation, communication skills, and personal development. As a result, they are more competitive and capable professionals.
It serves as a guiding light for students as they navigate the complexities of the professional world with confidence and competence. In addition to providing comprehensive support for students and fostering industry connections, the centre plays a significant role in shaping successful careers and enhancing the overall reputation and growth of educational institutions.
