Sethu Bhaskara Agricultural College and Research Foundation, Kalam Kair village (Near Karaikudi) organised a Two Days workshop on 'Business Communication'.  This being the first year of operation for the College, the Management decided to impart the importance of 'Business Communication' in the first year itself for the students, so that they can improve their employability skills before they complete their graduation.  

Keeping this concept in mind, a two day module was framed to improve the communication skills of the first year students.  The workshop was held on 6th and 7th Feb 2016 at the College premises itself.  Around 60 students participated.  Though most of the students came from rural background with Tamil Medium education, they showed keen interest in developing their communication skills.  Though they had fear and hesitation at the initial stage, they enthusiastically participated in discussions and in presentations.  

Prime Point Srinivasan conducted the two day crash course.  Dr R Jagannathan, (Former Vice Chancellor of Middle East University and American Medical University, West Indies), one of the Management Committee Members actively took part on both the days.

Dr Thirupathy of Apollo Hospitals, Karaikudi gave valedictory address and presented the certificates.  Some of the students, who were hesitating to speak due to stage fear, boldly came forward to showcase their presentation skills during valedictory event.  

Though the workshop was held on holidays like Saturday and Sunday, involvement and enthusiasm shown by the students,  teaching and non teaching staff, including the hostel employees and the drivers were highly praise worthy.
