Addressing a group of participants including civil service aspirants currently undergoing coaching at CCPC and career counsellors, Rizwan-ud-Din underscored the importance of goal setting in career and discussed in detail various strategies for goal-setting, excellence and accomplishment in life.
Prof Geer Mohammad Ishaq, Director CCPC while welcoming the guest highlighted the main objectives of the session.
“Students need to identify attainable goals and objectives in their life and career and need to devise suitable strategies for achievement of the same” he said.
He said goals are like milestones and serve as a roadmap for progression in one’s life and career, and therefore civil service aspirants in particular must have a clear strategy for accomplishment of their goals.
