Soft Skill Development Programme

PATHWAYS an offshoot of HDF in collaboration with PRATHAM, Mumbai has specifically designed a certified course of soft skill development for Under Graduate/ Graduate/Post Graduate level students who would be trained in communication skills, personality development aspects, shaping individuals and building their self- confidence.

It offers courses on effective communication programs and personality development teamed with effective counseling to enhance one’s confidence and capability of developing a positive attitude towards life. This course is divided into two simple components to make it easier for the students to absorb more easily the course contents;

• The first component deals with fluency in speaking English, to understand and participate in discussions and conversations and enriching their vocabulary,

• The second component of the course is designed for lectures and exercises along with personal counseling to develop one’s personality.

Presently, courses are being run in CTTC, Bhubaneswar in more than 40 batches since November 2007. It has also developed different sets of courses to cater to the needs of different segments where each course has a definite curriculum to meet the need of a specific group of learners. At present its two main courses are; Crash Course for 1 month duration and Comprehensive Course for 3 months duration.

Subsequently, various colleges ranging from Engineering to Management as well as Social Work institutes around Bhubaneswar are being successfully roped in to start courses on soft skills in their institutes.
