The idea of Skill Yatra is to reach out to students by riding on a bicycle and to “mentor, motivate and guide” them about skills and careers. Mr. Kamlesh Sajnani, who is a director of IMS Proschool, will personally ride across the country and address the students. He is an educator, successful entrepreneur, and much sought-after speaker. His 30 years of experience of personally mentoring thousands of students will help us to influence the youth. In stage 1, the yatra will travel across Thane, Mumbai and Pune. In subsequent stages, we plan to extend it cover every state across the country.
IMS, a leading education brand in the country, initiated skill development under Proschool. IMS Proschool has been helping young graduates acquire skills to enhance their employment potential. Over the past decade, we have trained over 35,000 students. In the process we have interacted with lakhs of students and realized that one of the key requirements is to create awareness about importance of skills and what skills will be relevant in future; to encourage students to be more proactive about their careers and that one needs to discuss these things rather than rely purely on the internet.
