It is suggested that a strong message has to reach the staff/faculty that absenting themselves from the training programmes would be viewed seriously by the management.

The Resource person for the programme were Prof. D.K.Pandey and Prof. Charu Chaudhary -faculty members of I.T.S, Mohannagar. The programme started with a welcome address by Prof. D.K.Pandey. This was followed by inauguration of the programme by the Director General. Director-Management shared her views on managing time and balancing one’s personal life along with one’s professional life. The programme included a number of interesting activities inviting the trainees’ participation and sharing of the opinion of participants about how they think, they manage their time. This discussion led to great deal of enthusiasm, as the participants could relate the topic very closely to their personal and professional lives. Some interesting videos were shown to the participants, which made them realize that they can do much more within the time limit that they have got.

The programme ended with lot of appreciation from the participants. They agreed that they are taking with them, the motivation of dealing with a lot more in their lives and also that they have a got a plenty of time for that. The programme schedule is attached for information.

The expert on board Dr. S. Chandrasekar introduced the topic to the students in a very interesting manner by challenging them to analyze the financial statements in less than 30 seconds. The students very willingly took the challenge and got involved at the very beginning. At the start there were discussions on the very basic terms and then there were 4 exercises in which the students participated. The students showed keen interest and were engaged throughout the workshop with the speaker. The workshop was attended by more than 30 students along with finance faculty, Prof. Anil Kalra, Prof. Anusha Agarwal, Prof. Nitin Saxena and Prof Neetu Purohit. The speaker introduced the concept of Asset Liability Management (ALM) in a very simple way through interesting exercises. After all the exercises the students understood few tricks to analyse and interpret the financial statements and were able to do the same in few seconds.

The students really appreciated the workshop and felt benefited from the session. The speaker also gave few appreciation certificates to the students who answered correctly the questions. Towards the end Prof. Anusha Agarwal and Prof. Neetu Purohit presented a token of remembrance to the guest.
