I decided to join IGDCS course only to have a structural as well as professional approach to counselling.

This being an online course, it provided me the flexibility of timing within the comfort of my home. But as the course unfolded module by module, it helped me to rediscover myself in the form of self awareness, though not in a higher spiritual level, but I could say in a more human way. Whatever question used to arise while going through one particular module, next module used to come as an answer for it. The language is very smooth, yet mature and contemporary. Which made me feel a sense of belonging with a sense of discipline!! I used to wait for my mentor's feedback, as it used to show me the other side of human emotions in a more constructive and in a more human way of looking into it. When I had started this course, I had thought of taking it only in a professional way, but the content of the course helped me finetuning my perspective towards life. The assurance given by the faculty of Banjara Academy that they are always there for us has given me an immense confidence in taking up this profession in a more determined way.As the definition of counselling says,'a human approach to human needs', and If I am able to fulfil this even to a smaller extent then I feel that I have given back to society. I thank Banjara Academy faculty for having designed such a wonderful course which is not only comprehensive but also worth complementing.
