133 Best Practice Title of the Practice: Career Guidance and Placement Cell 2. Goal Nature of Work: A.) Skill Orientated Programmes Vikasana Sahayoga Spoken English Naipunya Nidhi B.) Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Slogan: Skill India- Shine India A) To train our students to meet the needs of industry & corporate world. B) To inculcate with skill based learning. C) Providing job information & to place them in different sectors. D) To make them employable. E) To enhance the competitive skills among rural students. F) The aim is to ensure that students have the information and skills necessary for an effective job search 2. The Context The context of these programmes is to encourage skill development for our students by providing necessary trainings to them with value based and professional ethics. India is a growing country youngsters are more but we have to train them with skill based and lead them for higher studies. As our college is a government institution, it works under the department of collegiate education, government of Karnataka, the main motto behind organizing these programmes are to build our students to meet the global skills and make them employable. Every year our college plans to have new programmes and we send request letters to the government to start a new programme and insist our students to make use of it. The institution is located in a rural place and students are coming from rural areas more in number. Keeping this in mind of rural students, it is our duty to train them in job skills based on new curriculum and strategy to make them employable. As per the changing needs of the society, the institution has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with NGO Trust and implemented successfully. 133

134 3. The Practice The programmes are implemented in systematic process and students gain knowledge under respective schemes. 1. Proposal prepared by the government 2. Call for tenders from respective agencies 3. Allotment of Agencies to our college 4. Meeting with the Principal, Programme Coordinator 5. Selection of students from respective classes (BA & B.Com- I,II,III Year) 6. Commencement of Programmes for concerned classes 7. End of the programmes. List of Programmes successfully implemented in the college are Vikasana, Sahayoga, Spoken English & Naipunya Nidhi. Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is signed between our college and NGO Trust i.e. Smt. Parvatamma.B Mahila Mattu Gramina Abhiruddhi Samsthe (R) Tippanal to train and educate our students in job skills. Recently programme has taken its initiative to mould our students under placement cell. 4. Evidence of Success The placement cell is active; the cell collects the information about job fairs and send the students to campus interviews where they are held. The college organizes CET preparations, group discussion, mock interviews, Preparation of bio-data etc. Our college student Kumar Mutturaj.V B.Com final year has got selected in campus selection held at Veerashaiva college Bellary in Tata Consultancies and Services Pune on These programmes are of social responsibility & commitment towards students community. Students are very much influenced by the classes and the resource persons. Majority of students are happy and they suggested to continue every year but as per changing needs of the students we have to innovate new plans & programmes with the help of department of collegiate education. Feedback is collected from students about the success of programmes. 134

135 Year Name of the Programme Class Vikasana B.A & B.Com-II nd Year Sahayoga B.A & B.Com-III rd Year Spoken B.A English Naipunya Nidhi B.Com B.A & B.Com-II nd Year Name of the Training Agency Team Lease Team Lease Total number of students trained Department 78 of English isol Problems Encountered and Resources Required The main problem encountered is lack of permanent staff and the college is 2 km away from the town. Buses will not come in time so students have to come early to the college to attend special programmes. However, with best efforts made by principal and staff made it successful in time. While implementing Vikasana, Sahayoga & Naipunya Nidhi there was no problem of financial resources (Government funded) but only change of resource persons without prior intimation was a problem in some situation. But, while implementing Spoken English Classes from the department of English the main problem encountered was of resource persons and there was no separate fund to the department to run spoken English Classes and most of the students are from rural background. But however, the faculty arranged the programme free of cost to students and made it successful. 6. Note The programmes were successful. Students are happy& staff felt privileged to teach them and the slogan we used to motivate our students is Skill India- Shine India. 135

136 Best Practice-2 1. Title of the Practice: Creating Personalities for Tomorrow- Pratibhanveshane Nature of Work: Providing platform to students, giving opportunities in functions, programmes as anchors, volunteers & to monitor programmes. 2. Goal A) To remove stage fear and build confidence among students. B) Providing equal opportunities to boys & girls in programmes. C) The institution intends to expose students talents. D) To make students involvement in Cultural activities. E) To improvise communication skills among students. 3. The Context The institution wishes that our students should succeed in future. The context of these activities is to motivate & to expose their talents with confidence. The reason behind giving opportunities is to eradicate stage fear and make themselves to build their caliber as per requirements of society. Most of our college students are from rural background. Hence, it is our duty to make them aware of their skills to compete with urban students. Talented students have bright future in organizing programmes, anchoring etc. who have talent can rule the world. So, motto behind these opportunities is for the overall development of students. 4. The Practice The Cultural committee & IQAC cell always insist students to participate in programmes as anchors, volunteers and to speak about programmes etc. Each and every programme is covered with students participation as speakers, such as 1. Anchors 2. Invocation Singers 3. Expressing their opinion about the Programmes 4. Valedictory Speech etc. Not only students involve in these activities but also in plantation, maintenance of infrastructure etc. The different innovative practice creates interest among students in teaching and learning aspects. 136

137 5. Evidence of Success Most of the students are presented their talents in programmes like, Welcome function, Cultural programmes, IQAC programmes, Annual Day programmes & other committee functions etc. Every end of B.A, B.Com I, II, III semesters, college conducts interviews for students under Extra Curricular Activities to know more about students and staff each other. Especially NSS students are the active participants in the events organized in NSS Special Camps. In seven days of camp they build their confidence and exhibited their talents in cultural programmes. 6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required There is no problem encountered in implementing such thoughts. Because the aim of the idea is to make our students active and show their talent. Students are given sufficient time to go through the preparations on the programme & our staff assist them in several ways to promote their skills. The resources are our students, who take care of the success of programmes. No matter how they present their skills on stage but we have to remove stage phobia. There is nothing required, just the students to create human resource power and overall development of students. 7. Note The ultimate profit goes to students. That is the main intention behind this idea. Students are very happy for such thoughts. 8.
