Details of our programs
In today’s demanding world, students are facing constant challenges from their seniors, family members as well as friends to move up the path of career progression/the ladder. Pressure is not only from outside, this is emerging from within oneself, to do better and excel. They are young, full of vigor and enthusiasm. They dream but many of them are unaware of the avenues of transforming dreams to reality. Their academic curricula prepare their knowledge base for the next phase of their life but what they need in addition is a proper vision and guidance of how to face the world so far completely unknown to them. The Induction Programs offered by Avenir provides the last few strokes on the canvas that makes a great portrait. These programs are designed keeping in mind that every person is different, and hence employs a personalized, assessment based framework (TIRAF: The Industry Readiness Assessment Framework).
