Due to hectic and fast lifestyle these days, it becomes impossible to manage everything in an efficient manner; be it working professionals or students who sweat day and night to ensure that they have a successful career ahead. To empathize more, I am talking about the students who wish to become an IITian or a flourishing Engineer. They need to manage their school along with their coaching classes in order to exceed JEE Main entrance examination with flying colors. They need to study, attend classes and manage the preparation at same time. Also, they need to be active and attentive towards Webinars that are held to provide them accurate guidance and best possible solutions to their issues/ problems. But then where is the time?
Thus, in order to assist students in getting guidance from industry experts and ensuring that these students make the best possible decisions, askiitians proudly presents online webinar on varied topics. These webinars are detailed and are formed on the basis of the questions posed by the students. They are a mode of interaction between students and experts those who passionately answer all the queries of their students.
