Who am I ?
I am a curious senior Citizen !
Actually just a lay person interested in a variety of things.
Some years ago I realized that parents as well as the children are very confused about potential careers,available courses and new avenues opening up. Most Parents keep driving their children to known fields like Medicine, Engineering, Chartered accounting, MBA and such like. Many times I have seen people trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.
I also could not find a site with all the relevant information at one place. Some simply talked about the course, some about the institutes, and some wanted you to become their members before parting much info.

This induced me to catalog and write about less known careers and try to present all information at one place.
History

Actually I have been writing about these since 2008. They are graciously hosted by Karmayog site at http://karmayog.org/careercounselling/ and can be accesses there even now.
In fact their career page is a treasure trove for all education related topics and you will gain enormously by going through it. Even though these courses are India specific, I got mails and inquiries not only from India but also from Far East , Africa and even South America! As I am getting inquiries about them still, ( last being early June 2016), I decided to make this dedicated website to make them rather more accessible. I have made a list of less known careers, and that is the first document. Unfortunately I have not gotten round to write about all of them, but anyone interested can do the internet search for desired course. All the courses that I have written about are here, though I am now beginning to revamp them. But That is a time consuming activity so I have uploaded the files as they are and will keep on changing as I update them. . Today all kind of information / software/ hardware gets obsolete very fast. Hence it is always better to rely on your own research and use these documents as general compass. |
