Reverse Innovation is the only way to bridge the massive gap in the current Indian Education System. Every year, thousands of students graduate from colleges/institutions with dreams and hope in their eyes for a secure future. But once they leave college, most of them get a reality check; they are in shock over the job reality. Others realize that they truly aren't even ready to face the competition. But if not through the education system, then how else are the students supposed to be prepared. To address this massive gap in the education system and to make students market ready, the pioneer in vocational education, Times & Trends Academy has introduced 10 weeks comprehensive Reverse Innovation Programs for Interior & Fashion Design students.

In the session, the cinematographer of the film, Mr. Mahesh Limaye talked about the importance of observation while being in a career such as cinematography and further into film production.

The students were thrilled to hear about such informative concepts by these professionals.

"Students need to invest their time properly. Time is money for students," says Mr. Mahesh Limaye. A student will not have money at the present situation, but you need to invest your time in the right things to be successful. Mahesh Limaye is a hard working cinematographer who has worked for movies such as Freaky Ali (2016), Yellow (2014), Dabangg (2010), Fearless (2010), Natarang (2010) Fashion (2008), to name a few. He has been interacting with the TTA students since quite some time. With the sessions like these, Times & Trends Academy wants to bridge the knowledge gap between Industry professionals and students.

The Director of the film, Mr. Pravin Tarde talked about his acting career which started from the theatre with renowned actors such as Naseeruddin Shah, Paresh Rawal to name a few. After his acting career, he gradually had an interest in direction. "The film, Mulshi Pattern is very close to my heart", he says. The film which was released on 23rd November 2018, portrays realistic hardships faced by farmers and tackles one of the ranging issues of our times.

After attending the session held on Saturday, Times & Trends Academy's Interior design student, Ms. Hetal Malviya said, "I am so happy that I attended the session. I got to meet all the celebrities and had interaction about the art and production process required for the films. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity."

Skill Development & Career Opportunities

Pune, Maharashtra -- (ReleaseWire) -- 01/09/2018 -- Studies conducted by major universities and business organizations indicate that less than 10% of job failures are due the lack of technical aspects of the job. And this means that more than 90% of such failures are due to lack of understanding of one's self, lack of understanding of others and the lack of motivation (in short lack of life skills and people skills). Soft skills and confidence are very important attributes in being successful.

Times & Trends Academy conducted a recent 'Skill Development & Career Opportunities' workshop recently for finance and accounts students from TTA. The workshop was conducted by Mr. Wasim Sharif, Assistant Manager – Human Resource at WNS, and was attended by students, faculties & Mr. Amit Agrawal, Founder & Chairman – Times and Trends Academy. Mr. Wasim gave insights on various career opportunities in the finance & accounts industry.

Mr. Amit Agrawal said, "Skill development is crucial for economic growth and social development. The demographic transition of India makes it important to ensure employment opportunities for more than 15 million-plus youths entering working age annually. And therefore it becomes binding on us to conduct seminars & workshops for students that help them understand the market scenario better and acquire the necessary and relevant skillsets."

Mr. Wasim listed many technical skills in finance & accounting domain that MNCs are looking in the candidates when they are recruiting. And without those skillsets, he suggested that it would be very difficult to enter multi-national companies. As human resource professional, he also emphasized on the fact that freshers seeking a job in this industry must also have good communication skills to grab the job opportunities.

He mentioned that it is more likely that a candidate with good communication skills will see growth in any company as compared to a candidate without communication skills.

Mr. Wasim also discussed various job opportunities at WNS. He disclosed various openings and corresponding job profiles for the same. After explaining the profiles, he went on to explain the work culture at WNS. WNS Global is a global business process management company headquartered in Mumbai, India. It has more than 34,000 professionals working in 52 delivery centers across the world, including India, United States, United Kingdom, China, Costa Rica, Philippines, Poland, Romania, South Africa, and Sri Lanka.

He also shared his experience as a Human Resource Professional in the corporate sector and answered queries from students. Students from Finance & Accounts domain at TTA got a splendid chance to learn and clear their doubts during the seminar. Pritam Jagtap, one of the students, said, "The seminar was very informative. Most of the times, we, as students, do not understand the interview & screening process properly as we lack industry exposure. But, such seminars are really helpful because they show you the right direction. Now, I understand what are the skillsets that I must acquire before I apply for a job position. Thank you TTA for conducting such edifying seminar."
