At 9:30 am it was scheduled for classes XI and XII on the topic – ‘Being Future Ready – Make informed Choices’. The second session was on ‘Class to Careers and Beyond’ for the classes IX & X. Both the sessions were quite informative as various courses and career options were discussed. New arenas of interdisciplinary approach with a variety of careers to choose from were told to the parents and students. The participants were also acquainted with the  current trends in the job market and  how to make oneself ready for it . In the second session, Dr Dass emphasised that it is very important for the students to focus  on the subject of their choice and continue to excel in that subject for a better job prospective. She also informed the forum that in contemporary times as the technology is changing so are the career options for the students. Students need to know the choices they have to achieve happiness and carve successful careers. Dr. Dass also answered  the queries of both the parents and the students at the end of the session. This programme was appreciated by all the parents. They also thanked Rev Bro Tomy Varghese for organising this event for the students to help them and make them future ready.
