Dreams Fulfilled - AAI Makes It Possible For Ashish

Ashish Prajapati, 19 year old, comes from a family of four, living in one of the slums of Mumbai. The family has an inadequate financial status where Ashsih's father is the only earning member who earns nearly Rs.6,000/- a month.

Due to the economic condition of the family, Ashish could not complete his education. However, though his constant hard work and impeccable urge to become self-reliant brought him to the recently launched youth employability centre established by AAI. The centre offers Basic Computer Training courses to economically weaker sections of the society. Currently, he is pursuing the ‘Job Readiness Training Course’ which runs for a span of 4 months. The training covers eight modules in three parts. The training covers basic computer course, English speaking, Industrial overview, Customer Service, Grooming and Etiquettes, Career Orientation, logical reasoning, Communication skills etc.

Though a fantastic learner, Ashish had to carve his way through the current circumstances. Despite the difficulties in his path, he refused to look back. English had been a remote language to him until the training. Though not a master at it, he is better at the language than before. He credits the training staff at AAI-NIIT Yuvastar for their support and patience towards him. He confessed his admiration for the staff. He says that they have taught him a lot. They adhere to their responsibilities. He states that the staff not only gave him the right lessons but has also been easy on him by answering the initial ‘whys’ and ‘what’. Ashish today looks a thoroughly changed man from what he was. Also with his sheer hard work he recently passed his XII with good marks.

The course offered guidance and proper training to Ashish. The course at AAI-NIIT Yuvastar cut out the hurdles on his way to a better job. Presently he is working in Future group of companies as a Marketing Assistant Executive. The initially difficult path has become smooth due to t AAI’s initiative.
