Many rural students lack awareness of career options, competitive exams and government schemes. While industries are continuously seeking talent, several students are unable to align their skills with these opportunities. With the goal to bridge this gap, Shrimad Rajchandra Love and Care’s Educational Care programme had launched the Udyam Project, a pioneering initiative to support students in making informed career choices through guidance and counselling. This year’s initiative was launched by Dr. Rajshree Tandel, District Education Officer, Valsad in the presence of over 350 principals and school representatives from the district.
Through this programme, over 15,000 from around 70 schools students will benefit from career awareness sessions, while nearly 6,000 students will undergo psychometric tests, one-to-one counselling, and personalised career reports. A helpline number has been set up to provide guidance and support as well. A live psychometric test for Class 12 students of SMSM School, Dharampur, showcased the project’s impact in action.
The Udyam Project reinforces Shrimad Rajchandra Love and Care’s commitment to empowering the next generation through education and care.
