  In order to make an all round impact, we have been successfully running following ingeniously developed programs to transform our School and Higher Education: Faculty and Teachers • ‘Advanced Education Leadership’ Program for current and aspiring K12 system level Leaders • ‘Advanced Competency based Train the Trainer’ Programs for current and aspiring K12 Teachers In these years of varied engagements with policy makers, boards of education, educational influencers, leaders and teachers especially in schooling domain; I have observed serious misconceptions for the word ‘Competency’. Though NEP 2020 focuses on the same and recently launched ‘NCF for Foundational Stage 2022’ vehemently hammered on ‘Competency’ yet there is strong skepticism on how exactly to implement it with unanimous acceptance and heightened learning outcomes. Our ‘Advanced Competency based Train the Trainer Program’ is a well-tested, accepted and admired solution to solve this riddle. This program comprehensively covers NEP 2020 and NCPFECCE 2022 including but not limited to critical thinking, problem/cause identification and problem solving, creative thinking, multidisciplinary, futuristic, holistic, integrated, inquiry driven, discovery oriented, learner centered, discussion-based, flexible, play-based and enjoyable amongst others. Parents • Visionary and Strategic Parenting Mantras Workshop for K12 parents to realize true, unique and best potential of their child with year on year strategies across age 1-18. Students: Youth centric and India’s 1st of its kind “Lead the Future Induction Program” • ‘Unlocking Potential’ for Class 9-12: ‘Decipher yourself for a Distinguished Career’ • ‘Beyond All Clutter’ for Under-Graduates, PG and aspiring candidates: ‘Knit your own Success Story’ • ‘Art of Professional Brilliance’ for Young Professionals, Start-up Enthusiasts and Budding Entrepreneurs: ‘Mastering Success’ We have successfully conducted these programs in many schools of eminence.

  An initiative born out of my mind and very close to me, Parenstor Education, as the name suggests was incorporated to edify all the three stakeholders viz.

We stepped ahead to revolutionize the tuition & coaching landscape by launching a number of first time initiatives like Education Classes, Educator Training Program, My Smart Mom Program, Teach Your Own Child Program, Enhanced Productivity and Skill Development Program for School Teachers and so on. Created and supervised a cross-functional team of 18 people, ran digital media campaign based on SEO, SEM, SMO and google analytics, comprehensive outdoor campaigns, using print media and what not but it went into deep sleep due to financial crisis. However the idea and passion to revitalize Parenstor is very much alive. Show less
