The first of its kind at TKM Institute of Management, the TIM Campus to Corporate (CaCo) Training Programme and Alumni Boot Camp, 2016 brought together students, industry professionals, alumni, faculty and staff for an intensive and comprehensive six day training specially tailored for participants of the 21st batch aspiring for placements. Campus to Corporate and Alumni Boot Camp comes in the unique mix of formal and informal learning interactions.
A boot camp, as many other concepts in business, comes from military, ensures that the young recruits are getting a rigorous training. The objective is to get the nuances of corporate embedded in our promising recruits.
To set the tone, to lead a direction for the rest of the days, we got Mr Subhash Babu ,Regional Director of SBI and Mr. Pradeeban PN, Chief Manager-HR, SBI Life two veterans in the field of actuarial sciences. The inaugural address delved on personal branding followed by setting the expectations by TIM Director Dr Viswanathan A and Dr Vinith Kumar Nair, Associate Dean – External Affairs.
Career orientation and aptitude tests enabled the participants to gauge their placement preparedness as well as carefully plan for a career in the sector of their choice. The training and practice session on group discussions and interview followed by individual feedback boosted the participants’ confidence
The three days that followed pooled in alumni members from 4th batch to the 19th batches of TIM providing them an opportunity to give back to the Institute.
The remarkable participation by the thirty alumni members; who were really thrilled to expose the participants to the world of business by throwing in lights at the entry level positions, skill sets required, opportunities and career growth ranging from telecommunications, media, banking, FMCG, Insurance, IT and consultancy services was a great learning experience for the participants.
Career celebration of the past students of TIM and their achievements are integral to the development of current participants. The programme was a milestone in the advancement of TIM vouching its professional presence across industries through a credible alumni network.
