Corporate Mentors

We believe in holistic development of every student that decides to build their future with us. It thus becomes our constant endeavour to create an eco-system for students to interact with industry stalwarts on a frequent basis. For this, we’ve instituted the Corporate Mentoring Programme. All mentors are highly committed, experienced and accomplished professionals. On joining NDIM, each student is assigned to an industry Mentor, who acts as their guide, coach and counsellor. Mentors groom students according to industry specific expectations and provide hands-on learning of corporate culture and new-age skills through regular interaction. They take active interest in developing the student’s functional, personality and professional competencies to nurture them for leadership roles.
