The role of Mentoring Programs in B-schools!

Many business schools excel at providing high-quality education and the best focus on helping students plan their careers and build professional connections while they’re still working towards a diploma. The schools that accomplish this well have found that career mentoring programs are highly effective.

Mentorship programs basically connect aspiring MBA or PGDM students with senior professionals in their field of study. These programs focus on career planning to help students explore their job interests with someone who possesses more experience in the area.

Faculty members at iFEEL Lonavala, among the Top PGDM colleges in Mumbai, offer mentorship programs to the students to make them industry-ready and enhance their employability. Throughout the session, students are offered counselling and mentoring.

Understanding the pivotal role of mentorship programs, faculty mentors have been assigned to each student to teach them about the trending industry needs and help them enhance their personality, attitude, soft skills and more. In addition, personality mapping and career guidance are also an integral part of the iFEEL mentorship program.

These are aimed at creating a nurturing learning environment for the students and enabling them to be industry-ready, professionally-skilled, and socially responsible entrepreneurs. Through i6 series, the college also invites notable personalities from the industry for guest lectures to make the students learn from real-life experiences and gain a better insight into  the corporate world.

With the changing demands of the industry, the course syllabus at iFEEL Lonavala (Institute for Future Education, Entrepreneurship and Leadership) is modified from time to time based on the feedback of industry experts. On top of that, since technology has become a growing necessity in the current business world, courses based on analytics, predictive analysis are also introduced.

Whether it is an MBA or PGDM course, the essence lies in enabling the students to evolve into capable working professionals who can tackle challenges within and outside their workplaces. Above all, the mentoring program by iFEEL plays a crucial role in the career development of students. By acting as a resource in which students can ask questions regarding career paths and industry information, mentors can help provide students with the confidence and knowledge to make informed professional decisions.
