ASAP Wayanad NEWS LETTER VOL 5

ASAP WAYANAD

Newsletter

We are glad to unveil the latest issue of Wayanad Newsletter with all its regular mix of allure and diverse flavour. As we have a few flagship programs ongoing this month, deserving thrust has been given to them. Among them, SMILE program was a novel and latest initiative from ASAP which serves as a career guidance platform for SSLC students.

As we say, nothing succeeds like success. If you want to see your career moving in a right direction then career guidance is of utmost importance. In every country, youth face the challenge of deciding on a career path and starting their professional lives, often while navigating a weak and constantly changing labor market. Though having an education and in-demand skills are crucial components, youth need more to achieve long-term success. They need to know how their economy—on a local and national level—is growing and changing, and how this influences the job landscape. They need to understand how the available career options relate to their own interests and talents. And they need to develop the essential soft and technical skills that employers seek, while gaining relevant experience for the workplace. Effective career guidance (CG) services address these issues, helping youth to make confident, tailored, and insightful career choices. This is what addressed by SMILE.

A few article on Internet Etiquette, testimonials from ASAP students , report on ongoing summer skill skool and a new section “Monthly Book Review” has also been included in this issue.

Wish you a happy reading experience ....
