We brought 30 kids from the Parikrma School (in green) and Ashwini (in red) to the Cisco campus for a full day of career training workshop. About 30 volunteers worked together to create the content and led the workshop. It was a great way to teach these kids how to find jobs, how to build their resume, how to interview, how to dress for success and basically how to compete with kids from the main stream.It was very helpful and eye opening for all involved. We are making some improvements to the process and content and will get more volunteers involved to roll this workshop out to more kids who might benefit from this. A big hit for the workshop was getting them to introduce themselves over Telepresence. For many, it was the first time for them to use Telepresence and they got a big kick out of it!
