EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The current change evolving in the MBA education sector is such that it requires a structure

to be in place and is important that students are offered the right set of colleges Depending on

the interest/ aptitude/ paying capacity/preferred career paths/ functional choices. The IEIBS

AKADEMIATM

offers a MBA consulting program called as MBA- ProfTM

.

This Project on MBA-PROFTM

is entirely an effort which would help IEIBS

AKADEMIATM

introduce the product in the market, thus having the Sales to different

institute and Scale Up for the interested organisations or individuals.Our team was given the

Mumbai area for this purpose where we had to attend various colleges explain them the

concept of MBA-PROFTM

.

In order to do so, we firstly did some research work on internet and through other channels

about the different colleges in different areas, and thus planned the visits according to the

priorities. Scale up of MBA-PROFTM

was also pitched to the people we met in the different

institutes. We got a good response in the different colleges that we had visited. The

experience was one of its kinds as we could actually get the feel of entering the market place

and even pitching a product to the customers, thus cracking a deal.

INTRODUCTION

As business leaders try to navigate and rebuild economies savaged by the global meltdown,

business schools around the world are rethinking leadership and how to train the next

generation of managers in the midst of unprecedented challenges. It is not time to tweak what

has been done before. It is a time for reinvention of management education. The reinvention

may well be led by India, where explosive growth in demand for management training has

opened the door to massive growth and innovation in the business school sector. Thus

making the choice of Business school is often determined by where the student wants to work

and how much he can afford to spend for his MBA.

ABOUT MBA-PROFTM

The main focus of MBA PROFTM

is career of the students, thus making oneself a student

centric organization in which we believe to be an underwriter of complete career. We provide

career suggestions to the students who are confused in their career choices, based on their

potentials and provide proper information regarding appropriate career sources.

All this calls for a team of professionals in different areas to come together to develop

proactive strategies for higher education to meet the future demands. A Strategy Planning

Body and an Institution to design and develop futuristic courses for transferring them to the

Universities and Colleges may be created. Designing courses with relevance to the future anddeveloping the necessary manpower to deliver them is the main motive ofMBA-PROF

TM.

The business school establishment in the West has been hamstrung by the popular rankings

forcing institutions to look and act the same to fit the established concepts of what it means to

be "top-tier," stifling innovation. Institutions should be encouraged and incentivized to focus

on their strengths, and the ability of the student to get into those institutes.

MBA-PROFTM

tries to bridge the gap as far as providing guidance in approaching colleges

and support services for making a successful application.

OUR AIM:

To provide overall development to the students.

To provide different services

Helps students in their career profile.

To provide multiple career options in India and Abroad.

To provide up to date information about current market scenario.

Choices of B-School if choosing MBA as a career.

Counselling sessions with students.

Customization according to the needs and demand of the students.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The new challenge before the country at the beginning of the twenty first century is to

become a developed society by the year 2020, which requires that not only a vibrant economy

driven by knowledge has to be ushered in soon, but also a new society where justice and

human values prevails. Moreover, challenges in higher education are no longer only nation

centric, they have already attained global dimensions.

A paradigm shift has been noticed in higher education now a days, from national education

to global education, from one time education for few to life long education for all, fromteacher centric education to learner centric education. These changes make new demands

and pose fresh challenges to the established education systems and practices in the country.

Designing courses with relevance to the future and developing the necessary manpower to

deliver them is a challenging task. All this calls for a team of professionals in different areas

to come together to develop proactive strategies for higher education to meet the future

demands. A Strategy Planning Body and

an Institution to design and develop futuristic courses for transferring them to the

Universities and Colleges may be created.

Doing what is right, the right way at the right time is the key to qualifying for a graduatebusiness program. The MBA-PROF

TMprogram simplifies the steps to admission for

Business programs in India and abroad. The MBA-PROFTM

program offers a suit of

preparatory programs that help master the skills needed to succeed at B-schools.

MBA-PROFTM

Programs include

Information services Resume services Advisory services Grooming Communication Boot-Camp Test Prep

OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT

The main Objective behind MBA-PROFTM

:

helps

students to know field there interest and guides them to a good B-school and testprep classes for a better future.

It also conducts psychometric test for an appropriate result of the students interest.

We also got to interact with the the people who have been in the industry for

a long time and know the in and out of the business.

We also learnt the flaws and good things about the management industry. It was

agreat exposure to know about how things function in management industry and

also we developed our communication and convincing power as it took great

efforts to convince the directors of the college about MBA-PROFTM

LITERATURE REVIEWVERITAS PREP

Launched as a class project from Yale SOM in 2002, VERITAS Prep has now helped

more applicants successfully apply to Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, and other top MBA

programs than any other GMAT preparation & MBA admissions consulting firm in the

nation. The main reason for VERITAS success: word of mouth from ecstatic clients.

Every VERITAS Prep Head Consultant has formerly served as an admissions

representative at a top MBA program. Their experts can tell students precisely whateach admissions committee is looking for in a successful candidate because they have

evaluated thousands of applicants themselves for the most elite schools.

They provide unlimited support to their students. They dont count hours. They have a

coach to lead their students in every step of the way. Their consultant will tell their

students exactly what to do and what not to do, and will be there to reassure them when

students need it.

They try to understand their students more closely. Their application form kit contains

questions which allow the students to write about their goals and aim in life and also about

their unique challenges in life. This approach is also followed by MBA-PROFTM

bytaking psychometric test on students. For each and every student they appoint a Head

consultant who suits that student the best according to his likes, and the choice of his

school. In addition to this they also have a school specialist who has attended the school

before where the student wants to enrol in. Once this all is done the Head Consultant starts

working with the student on his week points and they give proper guidance to the student.

CRACK VERBAL

Crack Verbal is Indias first GMAT training institute with a unique

delivery mechanism focused solely on GMAT Verbal. We conductGMAT Boot camps which cover all the concepts pertaining to the

three verbal areas tested on the GMAT: Reading Comprehension,

Critical Reasoning and Sentence Correction.

They also offer workshops on quantitative GMAT covering all topics tested on Math and our

focus is purely on practice and application of relevant concepts. They urge students to think

through a solution rather than teach from a book.

MBA Profile Building Workshop

MBA Admissions Workshop gives in-depth complete details about MBA admission process,

anything related to GMAT exam, Colleges selections, essay writing etc.


11/21

This workshop introduces the new GMAT Plan and other proven MBA application

techniques in a session hosted by an expert MBA admissions consultant. Students

view.

students application materials (including essays and recommendations. Their consultants

can tell precisely what is working in an applicationand what is not. They provide all that

insight and more with our one-of-a-kind Ding Analysis.

that we are just trying to promote our college, but then when we properly told him about the

details of MBA ProfTM

, we understood it. He has given us a time schedule that has to be

decided in the end of January.

Karamveer Bhaurao Patil College, Vashi

AKADEMIA campus. We explained the concept of MBA ProfTM

to him, he was very happy

that we give such in-depth guidance to the students who wish to persue MBA.

This college had students who even did not know anything about MBA, so a seminar was

conducted. A total of 120 students turned out for the seminar. They listened to us withpatience and a lot of them even came for a personal interection.

R.K Talreja College of Arts, Science & Commerce, Ulhasnagar:

In the year 1961, the trust started Ulhasnagar Girls College, the first college in the entire

Konkan region, which was renamed as R.K.Talreja College in the year 1967. This is one of

the very renowned college in Ulhasnagar area. The strength of 3rd

Year students of the

college is about 500+ students of all streams.

We met the Vice Principal of this college, Prof. N.S. Vagarya, we told him about our

program and initially he was very confused regarding our program and he shooted us lot ofquestions and finally at a later stage we were able to convince him about our program. He

asked us to mail him all the details of the program so that he can talk to his management. He

was positive of conducting a seminar, but still waiting for their response.

CHM College Ulhasnagar :

more than 11000 students

Here I met Dr. Seema Sharma, Placement Co-Ordinator of this college. After hearing about

MBA Prof she was very much interested in conducting the seminar but strength of the

students was a concern as all were bust with their final exams and Placements preparations.

education and quality learning. The courses run by this college are B.com, B.A & B.B.A.

contact her in 1-2 days. Then afterwards she gave us the reference of Mr. Rakesh Roshan,

Training Placement Officer. He is ready for the seminar in the fourth week of January but

here also strength of the students is a concern. He was initially ready for the seminar in thesecond week but then he had to change his plans as various companies were visiting their

campus for Final placements of third year students.

Government College of Girls, Dausa, Jaipur / Government College of Boys, Dausa,Jaipur

This college is situated 60 Km from Jaipur in Dausa Dist. Its a government college where the

capacity of the students for the degree course is very less, i.e 130 for all the BA & B.Com

section for each college.

I had a talk to Dr. Suman Pandey, A N.S.S Officer of this college. I gave her the reference of

Dr. Urmil Talwar, who was also a retired N.S.S Officer whom i had a talk earlier. She is

ready to conduct a seminar for the students but says that she can arrange for maximum 100

students for the seminar including second year and third year for both the colleges. Hence she

has called us to meet us in the month of January and decide for the rest.

CONCLUSION

The Pragmatic Leadership Development Program was of utmost importance to us as we got

to learn the intricacies of a sales job. The approach that we had taken was such that we could

cover a lot of colleges in the Mumabi area. A first had experience in the industry made us

learn a lot.

According to us the initial stage, of introduction would be a time where MBA ProfTM

needs

to be tweaked to the requirements of the institutes, for e.g. pitching of MBA ProfTM

in

engineering colleges need to be devised in such a manner that GMAT/ GRE guidance needs

to be highlighted. But a brilliant concept in the market which can literally savour the students

needs.
