VSEC Members conduct Empowerment Session at SOS Village

Empowered students are highly motivated to view the opportunities as stepping stones towards success. Vidya Social Empowerment Center (VSEC) has been initiating various motivational and awareness sessions to empower the pillars of society. As a continuum, a session was held at SoS Village Mulayam on 08 April  2023. The opportunity at this village was put forward by our Dean of Academics, Dr. Sudha Balagopalan, as a part of extending the  IEEE Smart Village, Vocational Training Programme sessions to schools of contact under VSEC and Brahma Vidya.

As an initial phase, empowerment sessions were handled by Mr Praveesh V V (Asst Prof, EEE Dept, VSEC Member) along with VSEC student volunteers Midhun Joshy (S4, EEE Dept ) and Akhila M (S6, ECE Dept). The main topics for the session were “Think out of the box” and “Effective communication”.

In this activity-oriented session, around 20 students from 5th to 9th grade participated. All the students participated actively in the session with great enthusiasm and gave very good feedback.
