The workshop offered a platform to the Infosys Campus Connect team and faculty members of the partnering colleges to interact with each other. The main focus was on the importance of Soft Skills training. The session also included a walk-through of the Soft Skills content, so that this can be practiced and deployed in the partner colleges.

The sessions covered included: The art of communication, The hidden data of communication, Working in teams, Discussions, Decisions, and Business Ethics, and Adapting to Corporate Life. This was supplemented by brain storming and exercises.

The framework of deployment of the soft skill program in colleges was explored in detail, with the faculty members themselves facilitating sessions on the various phases of implementing this program in their respective college.

A measure of the event’s success? A participant says, “Thanks Infosys for providing us with such a great opportunity to have a complete insight into the skills required to be complete professionals and be successful in the corporate world.” No explanation needed!
