Empowering Students: Aarni University's Career Guidance Event in Chamba
Inspiring Future Leaders at Udaan Event
Naresh Kumar, a career counselor from Aarni University, motivated students at the Himalayan Public School in Chowari during the 'Udaan' career guidance event held on Friday. He emphasized that the current era is brimming with opportunities, and what young learners truly require is a clear understanding of their desired paths.
Kumar pointed out that confusion and a lack of direction can often pose greater challenges than the absence of opportunities. He noted that today's youth have access to a plethora of academic streams, professional courses, and skill-based options, which were not available in the past. 'Opportunities abound in today's world; the challenge lies in recognizing one's interests and selecting a focused direction,' he advised.
He encouraged students to identify their strengths and passions early on, explaining that having clear goals facilitates better planning and sustained effort. Kumar cautioned against succumbing to peer pressure or fleeting trends, urging students to concentrate on long-term aspirations. He asserted that success is not confined to traditional careers but can be achieved across various fields with dedication and appropriate guidance.
Kumar also highlighted Aarni University's commitment to student support through various initiatives aimed at holistic development. He shared that the university offers scholarships to deserving students and organizes events focused on startups and innovation to foster entrepreneurship and creative thinking among the youth. These initiatives are crafted to help students excel academically and professionally, equipping them for real-world challenges.
Regarding the Udaan initiative, the organizers stated that the program aims to guide students in making informed career choices and inspire them to excel in their studies. They noted that interactions with seasoned professionals are vital in shaping students' perspectives and boosting their confidence.
The session saw enthusiastic participation from students, who engaged actively in discussions about career planning and higher education. The event concluded with students expressing renewed confidence and motivation to pursue their goals with clarity and determination.
