Kohima, February 3: The IGNOU has added another feather to its cap by achieving 100% placement for its students who underwent Certificate in Home Based Health Care (CHBHC). This is a special achievement because these successful students are tribal students belonging to the backward district of Gadchiroli in Maharashtra under IGNOU Regional Centre Nagpur.
The Employer, Care Hospital, Nagpur conducted the interviews and were overwhelmed with the quality of IGNOU students with their commendable theoretical and practical knowledge attained through this course. Out of a total 48 candidates, 2 were yet to complete 18 years and 4 students were over 40 years. Those, below 18 years were advised to wait till they complete 18 years but assured placement and 4 candidates who were over 40 years were offered Supervisory posts.
One of the successful students, Trupti Kharbade, lost her husband just before the commencement of this Course has a story to tell. A widow and a mother of 2 girls now, she dedicated this success to her late husband with a sense of joy and fulfillment, whose final wish was for her to “stand on her own feet”.
With this achievement, IGNOU has been able to make a breakthrough of job placement of these tribal students in the backward district of Gadchiroli. This is first time that any University has conducted campus selection interviews.
This was stated in a press release issued by Dr. T. Iralu Regional Director IGNOU Regional Centre-20 Kohima: Nagaland.
