As part of life skill Retail Management trainees organized greeting card exhibition on 15th October, 2019. The topic was self awareness. The main event was to prepare a greeting card with the sub topic “why I am precious”. The activity mainly was on the life skill topic ‘self-awareness’. Mr. Henry (State Placement Coordinator), Ms. Nitya Rebello (MIS Coordinator), Mr. Kennady (Centre Coordinator), Staff of DB BEST Academy and other domain trainees took part in this.

The term ‘Life Skills’ refers to the skills you need to make the most out of life. Any skill that is useful in your life can be considered a life skill. Tying your shoe laces, swimming, driving a car and using a computer are useful life skills for most people. Broadly speaking, the term ‘life skills’ is usually used for any of the skills needed to deal well and effectively with the challenges of life.
The objectives of the programme was to develop their skills like self awareness, creativity, critical thinking etc. and to train trainees how to organize a program with proper planning, coordination and time bound.

Trainees were assigned to tell “I love you” to their parents and to share their experience about the reply from their parents. Trainees were also told to prepare a greeting card on the sub topic “why I am precious”. 

After that, Retail Management trainees organized a small greeting card exhibition. From other domains, trainees visited the exhibition and gave their feedbacks and comments. Based on trainees’ feedbacks and comments we awarded the best 3 trainees. The price was based on content and card creativity.

The event really encouraged the trainees to create their own ideas. Trainees really enjoyed the exhibition. Trainees organised the programme well and they shared their experience.
