So my name is Krishna In year 2024 I passed my 12th with pcm and 87 percent in boards and cleared jee with 89 percentile ( without coaching,) As because of OBC I get admission in DTU But I denied to take admission in lower branch And I have a dream to become CGL inspector so I join coaching for CGL Instead of taking drop for jee but now sometimes I feel regret don't know why As I thought ki mujhe BTech kar leni chaiye thi Ya fir ab mujhe apni preparation chud kar khi private college ke BTech kar lu As Mujhe dar lagta rhta khi mai life me unsuccessful na rha jao As age bhi tho bhot badi chiz h now I am 18 and in june I turn 19 And bus yahi h pls mai bhot jyada overthinking karta hu pls tell ki maine CGL ke liye decision shi liya ya nhi

Ans: Hello Krish.
You are just 18 years old. There is no need to do everything at this stage. You already cleared the 12th Board and appeared for JEE once but scored in the lower percentile. Yet you got admission to DTU. But with a predetermined mind, you think the branch allotted to you is lower. Let me be clear, none of the branches is higher and lower. Every branch has equal opportunities. If you were unsatisfied with the allotted branch, why not opt for your favorite branch from another private college?
Suggestion: First you get admission to any good private college to B.Tech. and complete the engineering with your preferred branch. At least you will have a solid degree in your hand. While studying engineering, you can prepare for CGL, which would be a better option. Even if you fail to crack CGL, you will have B.Tech. degree in your hand. Do engineering and CGL preparation simultaneously. Many students follow this path and have success also.
Best of luck for the upcoming bright future.

If satisfied, please like and follow me.
If dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.
Thanks.

Ans: Hello,
With 13 years of experience as a training manager, enhancing your career prospects requires investing in advanced certifications and courses that build on your expertise and align with the emerging demands of the learning and development field. Consider pursuing professional certifications such as the Certified Professional in Learning and Performance (CPLP) or the Train the Trainer certification, which are globally recognized and will strengthen your expertise in training and development. Expanding your knowledge in instructional design through courses focused on e-learning tools such as Articulate Storyline, Adobe Captivate or learning management system (LMS) management will keep you at the forefront of technology-driven training methods.

In addition to technical training skills, courses in leadership coaching and people management will help you develop the soft skills needed to effectively lead teams. For those looking to take on strategic roles, an MBA or certification in change management (Prosci) can provide a strong foundation in organizational development and leadership. Project management certifications such as the PMP or PRINCE2 are also valuable for training managers overseeing large-scale projects.

Furthermore, as the training sector moves towards data-driven decision-making, upskilling in learning analytics, AI in training and digital transformation in learning will help make your career future-ready and allow you to implement innovative training solutions. These qualifications will open up advanced career opportunities in senior leadership positions, from head of learning and development to roles in corporate training strategy and organisational change management.
