A career guidance seminar on the theme ‘Name Your Career’ under the aegis of My Admission Guidance (a unit of Satwat Edu Service Pvt Ltd) took place here today at Ura Academy Hall with a good number of Class XII science students and parents in attendance.
Addressing the seminar as the chief guest, FP Solo, principal secretary for school education & SCERT stressed on the need to impart good education and also to lay a strong foundation of maths and science education in the state. He said science graduates are likely to get more employment than arts graduates, adding that there is less unemployment among the science graduates than the arts graduates. Unfortunately, in Nagaland, he said, very few students go for science wherein 80% of students after passing Class X opt for arts and only 20% for science.
He told the seminar that majority of the students in case of neighboring state like Manipur go for science and very few for arts. In this respect, Manipur has enormous technical manpower. They have a strong foundation in maths and science, he said and stressed that the state of Nagaland also need to encourage more students go for science. While making career choice, he said it important to choice something which is required to the need of the time, career prospects and opportunities.
Dr. Er. Vikuotuolie Angami, Ph.D also graced the seminar as the guest of honour. Pradip Sengupta (Founder of XL education, IIT & MNNIT) and N.A Harish (Founder of CEG Education) also addressed the seminar. Earlier, Abeni in her welcome address said this seminar was organized for the first time in Nagaland.
Our education sector was established with a vision to become an eminent organization at pan global level into the field of career guidance and people's development, helping people around the world envisioning themselves, she said.
My Admission Guidance started with a motto of helping the students from Nagaland and other part of north east. It helps students as well as parents to get proper and rightful counseling before selecting any course or colleges.
My Admission Guidance extends proper career counseling related to education sector and its various related programs and activities.
She regretted that students from northeast are not aware of the opportunities which are available. There is absence of proper guidance, no career related seminars and no proper counselors/career mentors to guide the student. She said My Admission Guidance helped numerous students for the past 5 years, fulfilling their career dreams into the top most colleges in India.
Today’s seminar focused on motivational speech, solution for confused career, positive thinking, discussion on medical, engineering, management, paramedical & other courses which is the most beneficial for the students.
