The PTM was also the right occasion to showcase the opportunities, facilities and guidance that the college has been providing to learners since the beginning of the Academic Year. 

While every information, big or simple, is conveyed to learners through the right channels, chances are that learners may not be able to share some intimations with parents.

Learners had some queries and reservations about the intention of the PTM. They were assured that the main purpose of the meeting is to connect with the parents, give them important information about the scope of courses being offered, examination, admission procedure and very importantly, about the plethora of options, including Placements, that learners can benefit from extensively.

They were requested to scan codes for Placement services, and asked to submit their valuable feedback at the end.

No. of Attendees (Parents) : 365

Over the period of time The Internal Quality Cell of the college experienced that the flagship of the college equally depends on the non-teaching staff who are actually the foundation and strong  supporting pillars of any institution. The Service delivery at the administrative office speaks a thousand words about the care and concern the institution has for its stakeholders.  As quoted by Mr. Ron Kaufman  “Quality is more than a promise, it's a genuine performance.”Keeping this in mind the program is organized specially for the non teaching staff of various colleges. The Resource Person for the session was  a  Personable  Personality having talent to build images showing karisma. A Certified  International Image Consultant, who also happens to be a Parent of a BMS student of our college  .  Being one of the  stakeholders  of the College madam has been a great support in the continuous development of the institution. Participants had a good take away  of 5 Secrets from the session.
