#extra course

I haven’t made one of these in a while! Warning for rollercoaster of emotions:

I spent the weekend at a meeting for the extra course I am taking. The course is on behaviour of zoo animals, so we were at a zoo and I saw many nice animals (hmu if you want pictures!) Today is a pretty calm day, we have an exam on the first leg of the not-extra course (that is, vet program course, specifically animal husbandry and ethology) tomorrow, so today we have time to study. Which is really good, I think I would be feeling quite bad if I didn’t get a day without classes after such an intense weekend!

On a different note, I went to my uni’s mental health services on Friday. I have been struggling with focus and procrastination for quite a while now, I’ve just postponed getting help (ironically, considering the procrastination issues), aided by covid-19 of course. Problem with that is of course that things kept getting worse, what with me having a bit of a breakdown in the middle of my pharmacology exam last term (which caused me to create this blog while I was studying for the retake!) and then of course, my mum passing away at the end of the summer as a horrible cherry on top of the mental chaos sundae. I have been so nervous about going there, but it was quite nice. We have a second appointment booked where I am hoping I will dare to ask his opinion on whether I might be burnt out or have ADHD or something...

With immense pleasure and enthusiasm, we have had our dream fulfilled and we bring to you extra course, a on job real time training portal ,an initiative by Science Technologies intended to  bridge the missing link in the prevalent education system and the requirements of jobs. Many of us must’ve come across such dilemma of not being industry or job ready after our graduation be it the engineers or any other graduates. We know their hardship and on such a note we have come forward to cater to their needs and make them the obvious preference of the recruiters.

We at Extra course don’t provide any direct training to our candidates , it is just that the candidates with low or no experience having the desired skills are being trained for perfection and special attention is given on the industry requirements for a specific job profile.

Individual needs are different, we keep in mind this uniqueness and make custom made course which is designed for each candidate and assign an industry expert to him/her. Yes, you’ve heard it right the training is given under relevant industry experts so that proper job specific requirement of the candidate is fulfilled.

We have also understood the ever increasing need of the students passing out or undergoing internships as a part of their practical training period in colleges. The students have never faced corporate life before and cannot tackle some of the issues resulting out of this training. We provide a path to these students by properly guiding them right from updating their resumes upto the successful completion of their projects. We look into the fact that the real motive of the internship is achieved and there is a win win situation for all the parties involved.
