Case discussions
We, as an institute, strongly believe that our role as a trainer does not end when the training session ends. Often, practitioners need help with certain clients, and to help our trained professionals on that front, we have case discussion meetings twice every month.
This platform enables our students to get in touch with us, discuss the various cases they have been handling, and clarify their doubts and queries.
