Snapshot of Students’ Feedback
“The programme was very interesting and helpful, the teaching method
was good and professors were friendly.
The Executive Development Programme was total ‘Paisa Vasool’
Congested seating arrangements and lack of proper infrastructure
facilities
Faculty showed us excellent examples of how stress arises, how to
identify its symptoms and effects and how to overcome it
Have got exposure to various aspects of the corporate world through
expert faculties”
Owned Premises – A Pressing Need
• Founded in the year 2003, the Chapter has since changed six
premises each time a bigger one to meet the rising needs of the
students and members
• Facing constraints due to premises being on rent:
• Cannot meet the demands from the students regarding training
programs and oral coaching
• Cannot make permanent changes to customize to our
requirements
• Renting premises to conduct these comes at prohibitive costs as
well as inconvenience
