Guru Gyan Academy is a premier institution that boasts of a team of professionals and academics from across various fields of human endeavor. The institution has taken upon itself the responsibility to be at the forefront of imparting high quality education in various disciplines in an informative, educative, and entertaining manner. Our methods of teaching are innovative and we focus on each of our students. We are engaged in relentless pursuit of excellence in training and education through our research endeavours in the field of communication and education.
At a time and in a world that is characterized by a high level of competition in almost all fields of human activity, an individual needs to prepare herself/himself aiming for an edge over and above others. We also understand that the pace of learning of every individual is different and therefore, our focus is always on each student, rather than the classroom as a whole. Since an individual’s performance depends on more factors than one, we try to help her/him in overcoming obstacles both within and without. Towards that end we have been working so as to ensure our students outshine others and become the torchbearers for those who are looking forward to someone for inspiration and motivation. Our core concept relates to providing freedom of learning, just about anything and everything, as we understand fully that it is in an atmosphere of freedom that we shall see the blossoming of talent within our students. Much as we have trained over the years, we have been utterly surprised at our own learning experiences. Students have shown time and time again that they have enormous talent. However, that talent needs to be set free so that it can manifest its true potential. The more we learn the more we want to train, reach out to those who are willing to learn, life skills or anything that enriches their lives. The training that you undergo here will go a long way in improving you, both in your personal and professional life. It will be a real change and not a theoretical one. We are known as trainers who IMPROVE LIVES! Our trainers’ team has been training for several years and has worked with urban teams, working women, and kids across cities in India, especially those who have had no idea of what they want to do with their lives.
All along our training endeavours, we have understood that people are always willing to learn, and are capable of achieving and reaching the stars. But their efforts generally lack guidance. We have also learnt that when teaching happens outside of traditional classrooms, it gets better results. We have learnt that on-the-job training builds a better and more solid personality. Therefore, we are committed to building careers, as also overall life and personality of all our students so that they not only become a successful professional but also a successful human being.
Guru Gyan Academy at Sector 82, Mohali, a centre of learning and education is setup with a view to reach out to the youth in a bid to provide them quality education and skill-based training. To realize this dream the husband-wife duo Balbir Singh, B.Tech (IIT Delhi), ME, former Principal Chandigarh College of Engineering and Technology, Chandigarh and Dr Usha Dhawal, MBBS, MS, PGD (Psychotherapy & Counseling) PGD ( U.K. ) Ex. P.C.M.S. Clinical Hypnotherapist, London, also former Principal Home Sc. College, Chandigarh, have teamed up to give wings to their wish in the form of an initiative by the name Guru Gyan Academy. Since both of them have been engaged in some in-depth research-oriented work in the field of psychology, personal development, and education, it has become our motto to seek new opportunities for the youth, thereby striving to open new doors of human excellence.
Having worked in the fields of human psychology, personal development and education for several years, we have realized that education today must fulfill two very significant goals: one is to unshackle the inherent potential in an individual towards achieving excellence, second is to develop requisite skills for enhancing employability. In keeping with these two basic objectives, we have decided to make a humble effort towards initiating the opening of an institution that caters to various needs of the youth of this region and of those from other parts of the country. The institution will strive to offer quality education and skill development training through its courses which have been divided into five categories: Academics, Competitive, Skill Development, IELTS, and Short-term Courses.At the very outset, we at Guru Gyan Academy, are focusing on starting Skill Development, Competitive, and IELTS courses, followed by Academic and short-term courses. In our Skill Development section we have such courses as Spoken English, Personality Development, Corporate Professional training, and BPO training.
The Competitive Courses will comprise training to crack exams such as Staff Selection Commission Exams, Bank PO & Clerical Exams, Combined Law Admission Test, and UGC NET Test for JRF/ Assistant Professor.The IELTS course will also begin shortly and we hope to fulfill the aspirations of our youth who wish to go abroad for studies or employment. Our English teaching approach is innovative and will help in materializing the dreams of the aspirants.
In our academic section, we shall begin courses catering to the coaching needs of commerce students such as classes XI, XII, and B.Com.
Our teaching staff is experienced enough to understand and empathize with the needs of the students and will ensure that high standards of teaching and training are maintained throughout the courses.
We hope to establish an enduring relationship with you as you are the ones we wish to serve and in so doing we also seek your cooperation in bringing success to our endeavour of providing quality education and skill development training to our youth for their bright future and for the progress of India.
During my long tenure in education and the time I spent with students I very strongly feel that most of the student community lacks in basic principles of how to grow as a successful person in life. The inputs and training which used to be given to children by parents and especially by grandparents is mostly not available to the present generation. The main emphasis of the parents and teachers these days is that their children obtain high score in tests and examinations. All sorts of methods to score good grades in lower classes are used by the parents and teachers forgetting the main essence of teaching and learning process. Most of the students cram to obtain good scores without caring for understanding the concepts and developing relevant skills. Apart from this, the present generation has considerable amount of stress due to high aspirations of parents, peer pressure, emotional and relationship stress. A fear of performance and failure also creates anxiety which in turn lowers the self esteem and self confidence. I personally feel that before entering tenth class, students should be made aware of the learning techniques and a structured action plan to achieve success. Every Child is now sent for couching classes while students who bear good habit of self study, are organized, confident and are familiar with learning process, excel in competitive tests while others only give excuses to parents and hold their circumstances responsible for their failures. In fact many of them worked hard but were not successful because they were not aware about the art of learning and success and subsequently slip into frustration and depression. At that stage it is generally too late.
After graduating from Indian Institute of Technology Delhi I became an entrepreneur and set up a small scale manufacturing unit near Chandigarh. However, teaching was my passion, I left the venture and joined teaching profession, I headed institutions as Director/Principal and the mix of the experience I had as an entrepreneur and a teacher gave me a clear conception about why the young professionals passing out of a large number of engineering, management and other institutions are jobless. They are holding their degrees in their hands to beg for a job of any kind. Employers do not find them suitable for their own profession or any other kind of job apart from their field. While on the other hand employers are searching for skilled professionals, which they are not getting. The situation is such that the people who have obtained degrees but lack in professional skills while people who have acquired skills with experience and hard work have no degrees. I determined to work to bridge this skill gap by making them employable. A starting is made by founding POWERURMIND for training people in life skills and to motivate them achieve the required skills without which it remains a dream to get in to employment. Everything is the mind and the thought patterns; therefore training their mind with latest techniques is the key. Conducting a psychometric test is essential to fix the goal for the specific skills to be updated to re-engineer the thought process and a specific direction to achieve desired results. In-house Training is conducted by our team of experts while self help program with support and guidance of our faculty is also available.
