Education
Our Education
At SVRCC, we believe in holistic education, espousing the values of our guide and muse, Swami Vivekananda. We strive to blend academic rigour with the teaching of the philosophy of positive, healthy, joyful and purposeful living to our students.
Apart from the rigorous technical training provided, we endeavor to awaken the humanity within each student by involving them in our extensive community service activities, to inculcate the "spirit of giving back".
Apart from this, we also provide sports training and extra-curricular activities to keep students engaged and motivated in attending the institution. At SVRCC, we go the extra mile by engaging parents in productive dialogue with the institution to help them understand their children’s progress enabling both parents and children to maintain peaceful relations at home.
Our methodology
At SVRCC, the methodologies followed at every level of the organization can be characterized as professional and meticulous. We impart the positive philosophy of healthy, joyful and purposeful living to our students and both the practical and theoretical aspect of learning receive equal stress. The one year period of training is broken into 9 months of in-house learning and 3 months of internship training with our industrial partners.
The spirit of sportsmanship in our students is cultivated with indoor and outdoor games that require both individual talent and team-spirit and leadership qualities. Extra-curricular activities bring such latent talents as singing, dancing, play-acting and performing to the fore.
Community service plays a pivotal role in the learning process in that it demands and cultivates civic sense and desire to give-back to the society in our students. Visiting old age homes and cleansing public places come naturally to the student of SVRCC
We encourage and engage the parents in productive dialogue with the institutions which help in understanding their children much better and promote peace at home- front. This is one of uniquely humane aspect of the college.
Industrial partnerships: Local industry, commerce, and employer organizations are actively involved in initiatives at SVRCC. This allows us to:
- Develop appropriate course curriculam and materials
- Periodically review training modules and include relevant skill-sets
- Access better faculties and delivery of courses
- Provide internships and hands-on-experience to the students
- Place students after completion of training
The one-year training is split into 9 months of conceptual training and 3-months of internship at one of our local industry partners. While this is the pedagogy followed, the curriculum for holistic education includes many softer components, like –
Love and Care
At SVRCC, every teacher brings this approach to every student in the class and gives personal attention to the evolution of the youngster from a diffident, difficult person to a confident, result-oriented go-getter.
Focus on Mental and Physical Health
Students are taught to do yoga and practice meditation, whatever their chosen professional course may be. Sports and cultural activities are organised to unearth and develop their talents.
Life Skills
All students are exposed to time management, emotion management, dealing with adversity, computer skills, spoken and written English, leadership and inter-personal communication in classes, specifically scheduled for their learning the skills.
Work Skills and Internship
On completion of concept learning the students are assigned as interns in the workplaces of our relevant trade partners. They ‘go through the grill’ as it were, and get to know how reality differs from theory.
Community service & inclusivity
Students are sent to social service camps and similar community activities. They visit orphanages, old age homes and other such public service outfits to both see what is done and to actively participate in the activity.
Final assessment & evaluation
Regular periodic internal assessment is done to assess learning levels and take corrective action. There is an annual examination conducted by NSDC Third Party Assessors. The candidates also have the Tamil Nadu Open University (TNOU) or State Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training (SCVT) assessments as applicable for their course.
