How does the curriculum of Ebenezer Institute ensure the best practice of industry?

“Bringing in dynamic industrial practices and skilled intellectuals”

Academic grades, however important, cannot be a sign of excellent and skilled personnel. To be an expert in any field, one has to be trained holistically and potentially. This is the reason why the curriculum of Ebenezer is structured in alignment with practical training using the latest advancements in the subject. We combine experiential learning with practical training to give students a real-world experience within the educational setup. This makes students ready for work and to take up a higher position of authority in the actual world.

Any suggestions you would like to give to the current youth? 

“Confidence and belief are your truest wisdom”

I’d say- believe that you have a purpose and work hard to fulfil your purpose. The world today offers an array of opportunities. But along with opportunities comes indecisiveness and challenges. Do not be stuck when you face these challenges. Be confident and take the step of seeking knowledge and advice. Learn through your own experience and grow through the experiences of others.
