It was an immense pleasure to get knowledge from , Prof. Sonia Jindal,about the topic and She shared his experiences also. It was an interactive session where the speaker shared the different aspects of the topic.

Points discussed in details are as follows:

 To apply for different posts as PRT and TGT at school level. These tests cover subjects, like Hindi, English, Reasoning, Quantitative aptitude and Pedagogy. Students should have a good command of school, graduation and/or post-graduation
subjects to get through these tests. 

 While filling recruitment forms of different organizations, Students should be aware of providing correct educational qualifications (from recent to past), given references should be appropriate and other details should be accurate and authentic.
