BRMS to groom youth to 'world of work'
by Lalin FERNANDOPULLE
Business Resource Management Services (BRMS), a management
consultancy, training and research company is geared to offer Sri Lankan
youth an opportunity to undergo an intensive program which would groom
them to be compatible to the world of work.
The program will be conducted by the company's career guiding arm
Careerguild under the youth enrichment program.
As the first step BRMS in collaboration with the Old Boys'
Association of D.S. Senanayake College, Colombo has initiated a session
which will be held on September 16 at the College Alles Hall at 9.30
a.m.
Director BRMS/Careerguild, Wasantha K.B. Senanayake said unemployment
and non-availability of suitable staff to man private and public sector
projects are two major challengers encountered by the country.
"The problem of unemployment should be solved through the private
sector. The heads of private sector organisations will maintain that
every vacancy they have advertised received a good response with
suitably educated persons.
However, the problem was finding persons suitably groomed for the
positions," Senanayake said.
He said at national level we have this problem of graduates with no
employment whereas there are many institutions desperately seeking
qualified persons to fill the vacant positions.
"From the global point of view, it has been observed that the other
nations in the Asian region including India have recognised the
importance of having a systematic approach in guiding the youth
effectively to achieve their core aspirations, and forge ahead making
them compatible with their talent and exposure to the "World of Work",
locally and overseas, he said.
Careerguild has approached several recognised schools to conduct this
program and the response has been favourable. Further, Careerguild
intends popularising this program in the outstation schools as well.
Considering that the present undergraduates would in the near future
embark into the 'World of Work'. Careerguild opines that this program
would indeed enrich their knowledge in the decision making process.
BRMS offer a wide range of quality services to all types of
organisations, in employee training and development including management
development, management services and establishment of business
enterprises, foreign investment, project planning and feasibility
studies.
"Our Vision is to be the centre of excellence in Management
Consultancy and Services in Sri Lanka and the Mission will be to provide
high quality professional Management Consultancy and Services through
the adoption of innovative and modern techniques for total satisfaction
of our client organisations", he added.
