Student Testimonials

I am Chandrika. I stay in Uppal. My father is a welder. After completion of my 10th class I was confused on which stream to choose as our financial condition was not good enough to support my education. My childhood dream was to became an astronaut. Then, I met my school sir who had suggested me to approach Nirmaan Career Guidance centre to get help. There I met Srihari Sir who counselled me in taking polytechnic after polyset examination. I got seat in Govt. Polytechnic College. I am also helped by Nirmaan Career Guidance Centre in getting Scholarship of Rs. 5,000 per year for 3 years after 10th class from K.C Mahindra Group, thus helping me financially. In polytechnic college I completed my diploma and went on to write E-CET. I got 114th rank in exam and with the help of Nirmaan attended counselling for Engineering College and got admitted in top college. I am presently studying B.Tech Final year and taking Gate coaching to acheive my goal of becoming astronaut by studying M.Tech in Aerospace Department of any of IIT’s. I am in debt to Nirmaan who have helped me, guided me through out my Career. Thank you

I am Dilawar from Zaheerabad, my dad is a lorry driver, I wanted to know about free courses in hotel management. But I don’t know where & how to apply. I called toll free number. I came to know about free course in hotel management at National Institute of Tourism & Hospitality Management (NITHM). Nirmaan counsellor suggested me to apply first and that I would be called for interview. I followed their guide lines & applied. They called me for interview and got selected to do the free course. After the course I got placed in ‘Bowl o China’ restaurant with a salary of Rs.5000. Later I wanted to pursue fire and safety course to increase my salary and approached Nirmaan toll free number again. Now I am working as a floor in-charge in Inorbit mall with a salary of Rs 15,000. Thank you Nirmaan Vidya Helpline.
