Fifty-five students of the Government Model Senior Secondary School, Mashobra, majoring in Beauty and Wellness, participated in a five-day on-the-job training program as part of their vocational education program, learning practical skills. Held at the Sai Aura Satya Sai Salon in Sunni, the students were taught various techniques related to beauty and personal care.
Salon owner Deepika provided hands-on training to students on skin and hair care, facials, cleansing, toning, moisturizing, hairdressing, hair styling, makeup, mehndi art, manicures, and pedicures. She also taught them about identifying equipment used in the salon, their safe use, sanitizing equipment, personal hygiene, and infection prevention.
During the training, the students were also introduced to proper selection of beauty products, workplace hygiene, customer service, effective communication, time management and basic aspects of salon operations.
Anu Parashar, a vocational education teacher at the school, said that on-the-job training is an important part of vocational education. It provides students with real-world workplace experience along with bookish knowledge. Such training programs enhance students’ confidence, creativity, and efficiency, and inspire them to become self-reliant.
School Principal Meenakshi Sood praised the training program, saying that the goal of vocational education is to provide students with employable and life-supporting skills so they can take advantage of future opportunities. Such programs encourage students to identify their talents and pursue self-employment.
