73 students of Cochin College of Arts & Science were trained in soft skills to enhance their job readiness.

From July 17 to July 19, 2024, a Skill Development Training Program was successfully conducted at Cochin College of Arts & Science in collaboration with VFS Global. This three-day initiative was designed to equip students with essential soft skills and prepare them for future academic and professional opportunities.

The program engaged over 73 students through more than 16 thoughtfully curated sessions. The training covered a wide range of topics including personality development, attitude and motivation, self-esteem building, basic financial literacy, budgeting and investment, communication skills, problem-solving, networking, time management, leadership, resume building, self-grooming, and interview techniques.

We extend our sincere appreciation to the facilitators, Vishnu TS and Arshil PC, whose interactive methods—including group exercises, discussions, and engaging activities—made the sessions both impactful and memorable for the students.

The positive feedback received from participants reflects the strong value and relevance of the program. We are grateful to Cochin College of Arts & Science for hosting this initiative and providing a supportive learning environment. We also thank VFS Global for their consistent support and partnership, which played a crucial role in the success of this endeavor.

This program marks an important step toward empowering students with the skills and confidence they need to thrive in their careers and beyond.
