About the Initiative
Competencies are critical for equipping students with the knowledge, skills and attitudes that they will need to successfully navigate their personal and professional journeys. The Competence Development initiative aims to guide and facilitate students through this development and application process. The Competence Development centre at GCGC is responsible for providing direction and oversight to the ‘Campus Recruitment Training’ and ‘Campus Placement’ initiatives of GITAM.
Connecting the Academic and Real World
The Competence Development initiative interfaces with the industry and potential employers to find and fill knowledge and skill gaps that emerge between the academic and the real world.
Being Industry Ready
The desired outcome of this initiative is to upskill GITAMites during their time on the campus and provide them with a competitive advantage as they step out into the industrial premises.
