Education Interface 2022 is a proactive platform that brings together students, parents and institutions for holistic career solutions. It offers pre-counseling sessions and career guidance to students focusing on engineering, medical, hotel management, media and communication courses, hospitality business, ITI, nursing, pharmaceutical sciences, architecture, design, polytechnic, etc. More than 250 professional institutes in and around India are providing information to students.
Speaking on the occasion, Sinha Roy said, "Every student undergoes transformational phases in life which open up a whole new world of opportunities and learning. But before all of this begins, there is the struggle of dealing with admissions and related procedures. Most students have a million questions in their minds on various aspects of education, such as choosing the right university or college, the requirements for admission, university rankings etc. This is where education fairs come in to help answer student queries. ”
