At DIS Edge, we believe in preparing our students for a successful future by equipping them with the skills and knowledge necessary to thrive in their chosen careers. Our comprehensive Career Readiness program is designed to support students from the moment they enter our school until they graduate, ensuring they are well-prepared for the challenges and opportunities of the modern workforce.
The career readiness begins at grade VI level onwards where children are given subtle exposures through workshops, hands in sessions and exploratory day trips about different vocations. The career readiness takes up rigor as the child reaches grade IX and areas like career counseling and career aptitude analysis gets added along with the chiseling of stream specific career awareness and parental involvement in the sessions.
