VOCATIONAL COURSES AFTER SCHOOL

by Vaibhav Kumar Pragyan Institute of Education

Vocational education and technology are two sides of same coin. Both make education worthwhile endeavor for all. Job oriented course after passing senior secondary school examination alongside basic graduation course in ones preferred stream makes education more practical and valuable. It adds an edge to personal profile at the beginning of one’s career.

Vocational courses in teaching, fine arts, crafts and handicrafts may not be too searched for courses but it is slowly picking up much needed attention from all. Need and market demand creates awareness among people. Demand for handmade products has opened avenues for creative people. Not only did it provide a new career opportunity for freelance artisans and craftsperson but also for those who were always inclined towards creativity but did not find it fit to choose as a career option during their active educational period.

Best fine art institute in south Delhi offer multilevel courses, starting from hobby classes in painting and sketching and drawing to 4 yrs Graduation in BFA and 2 Yrs. Post Graduation MFA in arts. Top BFA Institute in Delhi conducts special classes in drawing and sketching for animation students, professionals’ workings as illustrators in newspaper and book publishing houses and advertising agencies and also for interested people who are not working or studying, but just want to learn the art to satisfy their soul cravings to do something worthwhile in their leisure time. Special classes in abstract art, portrait in oil and acrylic, landscapes, old master technique study, drawing in pen n ink and mix media are conducted. They also conduct BFA Entrance preparation classes for students to help them prepare for entrance exams held each year for admissions in central universities, where admission is entrance based.

Similarly is the case with handicrafts. Top Arts and Crafts institutes in Delhi train interested people in making beautiful utility handicraft products. It is a very vast and an unending field. Imagination and visualization is the key. One can play with any material and create something very dramatic. Short term courses in art and craft provide a platform to people to learn and master a technique one at a time and use it to earn livelihood as well. It is so very satisfying to create something novel. With people opting for wedding planners and décor option during weddings, birthday celebrations, baby shower, anniversaries and give away, crafting has come so handy option to do something unusual. Handmade chocolates, handmade gift boxes, personalized stationary, mix media paintings, handmade candles, hand stitched and hand-woven macramé  bags, purses, clutches, paper, beads and terracotta jewellery, decoupage items, murals etc are so fascinating and one cannot just admire them and not want to learn it themselves. Many tour operators book artists and crafters in their travel packages to engage their clients in some interesting work while they relax and enjoy during holidays.

Learning craft is not limited to people who love this variant of art form, but it is an integral part of elementary teacher training course also. NPTT courses in New Delhi and especially super specialized NPTT Institutes in south Delhi provide extensive classes in craft to their elementary teacher training students because craft is the main medium through which nursery and primary teachers build structural knowledge  in smaller children. Nursery and primary teachers must be very good and swift in drawing, must be highly creative and very efficient in using art and craft as a medium of instruction. Art and craft should not only be considered as a leisure time activity. NPTT course helps one to understand children in respect to their learning and developmental needs. NPTT course also grooms interns in planning activities to support classroom teaching learning. It helps to manage their work with ease and comfort. Helps them to make learning easy and interesting. Teachers have to prepare teaching aids for children as these teaching aids help in sense training. This makes reception of concepts easy and stress free. Besides helping interns in understanding the pedagogy of teaching, recognized NPTT course also makes them effective trainer in the long run because it helps them to understand behaviour and ways to modify behaviour. It makes them sensitive to each child. Hence NPTT course is not just any vocational course, it is actually effective human resource training module.
