Dear Friends ,
Often the waiting period between the graduation and the first interview is quite long and annoying. Often students tend to forget the hard earned knowledge during these days. Some students get diverted to some other activity after the college and hence when they seek the interview , they don’t feel confident.
This post describes about the course which is being launched to brush up the knowledge through an effective method.
Read on for further details.
Objectives of the course :
To increase the effectiveness of the construction professionals by upgrading knowledge .
Methodology :
1. Conduct a series of practical tests .
2. Identify the weak areas through the answers .
3. Giving inputs on the basic concepts
4. Provide support through appropriate study materials in the form of PPT , PDF , Videos.
5. By solving difficulties where the students get stuck
6.By Counselling
Why this is needed ?
While conducting interviews for various builders for Site Engineers , we felt that :
The Basic concepts are not clear to them.
For example :
1.How to calculate the Areas, Volumes of various shapes and geometries.
2.There are difficulties in conversions between British and Metric units.
3.While calculating for concrete ratios , students are not able to convert the Grade into proportions and vice versa.
4.While calculating the material , they are not able to calculate materials for :
Concrete ,Brick work ,Mortar and Plaster
Although these things are taught at the Degree or Diploma level , students have either not understood them properly or have forgotten how to apply these principles on actual problems.
You can imagine the serious effect of these issues .
The students are not able to perform as expected on the construction sites.
This obviously leads to a stagnated career.
Why On- Line course ?
On line course has been planned so that the students from different geographical regions can participate in this initiative .
The exercises are designed in such a way that the students can answer to these questions directly from the hand set . No lap top or desktop computer is considered necessary for this course.
Modus operandi [ Method ] ?
The exercises , PPT’s and PDF’s are sent over the mail.
The videos are made available through You tube .
Difficulties are solved through Whatsapp chat .
If necessary , Google documents can also be used to work together .
