International Webinar on Communication Skills and Personality Development organized at HMV


 

The PG Department of English organized an International Webinar on Communication Skills and Personality Development under the banner of Community College with benign support of Principal Prof. Dr. (Mrs.) Ajay Sareen. The event commenced with traditional lamp lighting ceremony followed by Gayatri Mantra. Mrs. Mamta, Head of Department of English, accorded a formal welcome to the honourable Principal Prof. Dr. (Mrs.) Ajay Sareen as the Presiding guest and the Resource Person, Mr. Harjinder Singh Bhugtaana, CELTA qualified English tutor from Australia. She mentioned that it is quite important for the students to hone their soft skills which are the need of the hour. She expressed her gratitude to the worthy resource person for giving an insight into the topic and to Mrs. Meenakshi Sayal, Cordinator Community College for her motivation to hold such sessions.

Principal Dr. Ajay Sareen in her presiding address briefed that taking into consideration the current education and job scenario, appropriate job-related skills complement a formal degree in any discipline. Career readiness and employability skills have become an increasingly critical part of education. In order to achieve these objectives, HMV is offering more than 20 skill oriented and vocational courses.

Mr. Harjinder Singh updated the students about the relationship between communication skills and personality.  He illustrated through a presentation that these skills refine and enhance the personality from every aspect. People with great communication skills tend to have a better and impressive personality than those who have problems in communicating as interacting with others is not a challenge for them. Individuals with effective communication skills can easily converse with other people and it strengthens the bond among individuals. It is also said to improve the interpersonal relationships with other people.

The students actively participated in the interactive session after the lecture. Mr. Parminder Singh gave the vote of thanks. The moderator of the event was Mrs. Lovleen Kaur.
