Summane

ಯಾವ ಕನಸಿನ ಮೋಹದಡಿಯಲಿ  ಬಂದು ನಿಂತಿಹೆ ಇಲ್ಲಿಗೆ
ಯಾಕೆ ಬಂದಿಹೆ ಎತ್ತ ಹೋಗುವೆ ಒಂದೂ ತಿಳಿಯದು ಬುದ್ದಿಗೆ !!
ಎಂದೋ ಮಾಡಿದ  ತಪ್ಪಿಗಾಗಿ ಇಂದು ಅನುಭವಿಸುತ್ತಿದೆ ಈ ಜೀವನ
ಬಾಲ್ಯದಾನಂದವ ನೆನೆದು ದಿನವೂ ಮರುಗುತಿದೆ  ನನ್ನೀಮನ .

ಎಲ್ಲರಂತೆಯೇ ನಾನೂ ಗಳಿಸಿದೆ  ಉತ್ತಮ ಗಳಿಕೆಯ ವೃತಿ
ಐ ಟಿ  ಕಂಪನಿ ಗಂತು ಇತ್ತು ತುಂಬಾ ಬೇಡಿಕೆ ಜಾಸ್ತಿ
ಕರ್ಚು ಗಳಿಕೆಯು ಸಮನಾಗಿದ್ದರು ನನ್ನೋಳಗಿತ್ತು ತೃಪ್ತಿ
ತಿಂಗಳ ಕೊನೆಯಲಿ ನೋಡುತ ಲಿದ್ದರೆ ಪೆಟ್ರೋಲ್ ಕರ್ಚಿಗೂ ನಾಸ್ತಿ
ಕಳೆಯುತಥಲಿದ್ದೆ ನನ್ನೀಜೀವನ ಈ ಪರಿ ಬಹು ಸಂತೋಷದಲಿ
ಬಂದಿತು ಒಂದಿನ ಮದುವೆಯ ಪ್ರಸ್ತಾಪ ದೂರವಾಣಿಯ ರೂಪದಲಿ
ಹೊಸತನ ಹೊಸಬಗೆ ಎಲ್ಲವೂ ನೂತನ ಅದುವೇ ಕನಸಿನ ಲೋಕ
ದಿನಕಳೆದನ್ಥೆಯೇ ಆಡಿಸಲಾರಮ್ಬಿಸಿತ್ತು ಅರ್ಥಶಾಸ್ತ್ರದ ಶಾಖ

ನಾಗಾಲೋಟದಲಿ  ಓಡುತಲಿತ್ತು ಬೆಂಗಳೂರೆಂಬ ಜಿಂಕೆ
ಕರಗುತಲಿತ್ತು ಆಸೆಯ ಗೋಪುರ ಮನದಲ್ಲಿತ್ತು ಶಂಕೆ
ಒಳ್ಳೆಯ ಆಶಯ ಒಳ್ಳೆಯ ಮನಸ್ಸು ಎಲ್ಲವೂ ಇಲ್ಲಿಂದ ಮಾಯ
ಹೆಚ್ಚಿಗೆ ಗಳಿಸುವದೊಂದೇ ಆಯಿತು ನಮ್ಮೆಲ್ಲರ ದ್ಯೇಯ

TrainingsTree.com -Idea to Reality

I have been thinking of building an organization which has a social cause with strong economic model for some time now.  Recently  idea came to my mind while bathing  ( I get such ideas only in the bathroom off late not sure why !!) which was meeting all the criteria I was looking for . As a result of this TainingsTree.com is born. I am completely fascinated by the concept for its sheer impact its going to make to the people  at large.  This concept would bridge the gaps between the knowledge needs and what providers are having in a big way and  be a platform where both provider and the seekers are the winners ,which  should be the mantra of  modern business.
 India being back office of the world there is already enough competitions among the people to upgrade themselves to brace the business challenges .  We are a young knowledge hungry people, this opens up a huge opportunity for learning and Training Industry. That is what exactly happened over a decade now, every alternate business has started training , crash course on various activities. No doubt this is a good sign of growth, however slowly the world Quality is missing and Quantity is taking over. This is not a good sign and going to create a bad impact very soon.
So what a am trying to build is to provide a platform quality is evaluated  . Here knowledge seeker can  make informed judgment  before joining and also rate them after the course. This brings enormous competition and transparency in the system  and its good for the larger society.
 TrainingsTree.com  will be a handy tool to identify the trainings available in the vicinity , be it pottery, cooking  or mountain climbing or any other learning like music or drawing for your kid , Trainings Tree is the solution, and you can also book  your seat  for free of cost. 

It is the skills gets you the job not the education

This morning I met a young man who was trying to sell something to me while I was sitting at my retail showroom, After initial scripted play which i hardly could understand  I was curious to know his background and how he landed up in what he is doing now.

Its a reality in India what students learn in college and what they do for living is no where related, its true even in my case. However its fair to expect today's generation x should be smart and job ready. But the reality shows otherwise. This man reaffirming my belief which is leading to write this article.

 Coming back to the sales boy's story, this  man is  fresh  B tech graduate who spent his 4 years life learning hardcore computer technology,  could  hardly converse in English forget about selling. This bring me to the point that i am trying to establish... what is the relation between employ ability and college degree.?. Simple questions arises to mind is  how could a student come out of colorful Digree without a basic skill be it technical or otherwise. What level of quality standards these colleges maintains. What would  be the impact of this on society in a longer run? .  Organisations like TCS, Infosys, Microsoft are spending huge amount to make freshers ready for work,  on an average 3 to 6 months they train an individual on OJT to make him ready for the job. So the whole system of education and skill needed for industry is way apart and literally there is very few people ready for hire.

After the graduation people are spending huge amount on short courses to get them equipped. This short courses and workshops and training have become big business off late, and many Training instituters have come up in recent days. Again there are quality issue, many  training institutes are extremely quality focused others are not, filtering the right training institute and course is a daunting task and  could be heavy on pocket as well. Trainingstree.com  has been true learning enabler and  helping such students and professionals in finding the right institutes and courses effectively. Good Training institutes also gets benefited by associating with www.trainingstree.com  and reach large audience who needs to be job ready.
