The District Employment and Counselling Centre, Leh, conducted a series of awareness programs on the National Career Service (NCS) initiative, an effort by the Ministry of Labour and Employment, Government of India, from October 9 to 12. These sessions were held at Higher Secondary Schools in Nyoma and Durbuk subdivisions, as well as High School Chushul, aiming to inform students about the diverse career services available through the NCS platform.

During the sessions, students were introduced to various career-oriented resources such as career guidance, counseling services, psychometric tests, and detailed information on scholarships and student loans. These services are designed to help students make informed decisions regarding their career paths.

The NCS portal is a comprehensive platform that connects job seekers, students, employers, and skill providers. It offers a wide array of services, including job search assistance, career counseling, and information on skill development programs, empowering students and job seekers to build successful careers.

In addition to the presentations, students received NCS information pamphlets, highlighting the platform's benefits. These pamphlets detailed how students can easily access career resources, apply for scholarships, and explore various career opportunities.

The program was well-received by both students and faculty members, marking an important step in raising career awareness and preparedness among students in these remote areas.
