On the auspicious 62nd anniversary celebration of Indian Independence day, all members of the PT universe (PT, PROTON and SBM) organized a city walktathon in Indore in which students from the various institutes of PT universe participated with full enthusiasm.

The celebration started with the hoisting of the Tricolour by the team of PT universe. Immediately after the flag hoisting all the students and staff members of PT universe joined in the walk which was inspired by Swami Vivekanad’s thought “Arise, Awake & Walk”.

The Walkathon was led by all senior members of the institutes, and started from the PT universe HQ at Yeshwant Plaza. It covered a distance of 5 kms touching the major points of the city. The Walkthon was full of zeal and passion where students and staff members of PT universe chanted mantras and slogans enthused by the leaders. The energy and zeal of the participants during the Walkathon left the city awestruck.

The walk demonstrated the discipline of PT universe and also gave the message of unity and determination. In the review session after the walk, the students confidently vowed to devote their time, knowledge and skills for the upliftment of today’s India. They realised the difference between talking and walking.

The celebration concluded on a cheerful note, wherein the organising committees congratulated everyone for their effort in making this initiative a success.

Make blood relations! Donate blood

4th successful year of PT universe's Saathi Haath Badhana blood donation drive

Have you or your near & dear ever been in need of blood? If your answer is ‘yes’, then surely you have realised that donating blood has been the greatest act of help. Blood is truly precious.

"Today we are proud to witness that youth have taken a solid step in this noble deed of donating blood with complete enthusiasm”, said Mr. Sandeep Manudhane, Founder Chairman of PT universe, on the 14th of August, 2009, in the inaugural ceremony of All India Blood Donation Campaign - Saathi Hath Badhana, in the premises of Yashwant Plaza on 14th August 2009.

This mega blood donation mega campaign was conducted at more than 80 PT locations across the country, including PROTON business school premises at Indore & Ahmedabad, and the SBM campuses at Indore, Ahmedabad and Nashik.

"It is worth noting that this is the 4th consecutive year that PT universe has successfully accomplished this blood donation drive. Many start, few continue. I wish PT universe the best for all coming years", said Shri Rakesh Shrivastava, Collector of Indore, while lighting the ceremonial lamp. The Senior Superindent of Police Indore Mr. Vipin Maheshwari echoed the sentiment. Expressing his views on the initiative taken by PT universe, Mr. Rakesh said that when the hospitals of the country are in dire need of blood, only limited units are available. Consequently a number of people in need have to face dire prospects. Such programs will encourage the youth and give confidence to donate blood. He said that such an initiative taken by PT universe is an appreciable effort. Mr. Maheshwari also agreed to the fact that generating awareness towards blood donation among masses is the need of the hour.

The blood bank's representatives were present in full force, and made people aware about the common cautions they need to observe before and after donating blood. They mentioned that it’s a common myth that donating blood may cause some sort of weakness in the donor. But actually a healthy body can recycle blood within 24 hours.

Across PT locations in India, students & staff participated with tremendous enthusiasm. Officials attending the program at various locations told that through this program they have been collecting data of donors which they make available throughout the year to those who may need it. The donors were also presented with an appreciation letter and a certificate.

Overall, more than 6000 units of blood was collected. The PT universe thanks each donor for their selfless gesture.

PT education, a trusted name in the country in the field of education and training for various entrance examinations and developmental programs, completed 16 successful years of its mission "helping students convert their dreams into reality" on the 10th of July 2009.

It was exactly 16 years ago - on the 10th of July 1993 - that PT was born. The vision was simple - "Add value to students' lives through quality delivery of education products and services." Over time, this vision has been redeemed, our core values have strengthened, and our reach widened. A dream born in 1993 took solid shape over the past 16 years and today it stands in the form of an education organisation with a nationwide reach with more than 85+ centres spread across the length and breadth of this country.

It was also an occasion of celebrating the grand success of producing CAT toppers for five consecutive years!

The PT family today boasts of one of the best teams in the industry, delivering cutting edge education and training products day in and day out across India. Our team includes more than 1000 faculty, administrators and staff members all strive for student success and student delight. Students are the reason for our existence, and every attempt is made at PT to focus strongly on the ultimate success of students. Be it teaching, mentoring, sharing, learning or grooming, we leave no stone unturned in our efforts to ensure the same.

The 16th Anniversary was celebrated with fun and enjoyment across the PT India network. Various competitions like Poster making, Slogan preparation, Collage making etc. were conducted and students actively participated in these competitions. Functions were organised, parties thrown, and sweets distributed to students. It was truly a memorable event! Given below are some select photos from across the network.

The mission never stops

SEBI Chairman Shri C.B.Bhave at PT universe

PT universe was graced today by the august presence of Mr. Chandrashekhar Bhaskar Bhave, Chairman, Securities and Exchanges Board of India (SEBI). His auspicious presence at PT universe not only enlightened the students about the various experiences of his life, but also gave a deep insight into the regulatory norms laid down by SEBI. Founder Chairman, PT universe Mr. Sandeep Manudhane and Dean (Academics) PROTON business school Prof. Vinay Goyal extended a warm floral welcome to Mr. Bhave.

Narrating his fantastic journey of success, Mr Bhave - an engineer by qualification - shared how he came to the civil services, became an administrator, then got into depository as Chairman & Managing Director National Securities Depository Ltd. (NSDL) and then into the regulatory role as the SEBI Chairman. He said - 'you can’t plan everything in life. One needs to look within before giving up'. He emphasized on the fact that one must not let the opportunities go by.

Mr. Bhave reminded the future managers that organizations became successful only if people learn to work in a team. He explained the importance of a "team" and asked the students to focus on 'what went wrong' rather than ‘who did wrong’, and ‘which team did wrong’. He strongly asked the students to fix the problems rather than fixing responsibilities with the help of strong systems and processes. He said - “Human minds work in a very interesting manner; it assembles the task and performs”.

After a fruitful speech, several questions were posed to him by the inquisitive students and Mr. Bhave answered all of them with ample patience. In a question regarding the Indian stock market following US models, Mr. Bhave strongly advocated India’s position stating that Indian Stock market does not follow US or other business models.

He accepted the presence of 'Insider Trading' and said that SEBI is trying to curb it through confessions in some cases, and is finding ways to control it. He accepted the fact that due to the non availability of circumstantial evidences it is sometimes difficult to prove.

He commented that due to strict guidelines of RBI, the effect of recession was comparatively less as compared to US and other countries. To reinforce his statement he quoted that in the US bailout was given to financial companies whereas in India it was given to farmers!

The Founder Chairman, PT universe Mr. Sandeep Manudhane extended a heartful thanks to Mr. C.B. Bhave for giving PT universe his valuable time.

Celebrating the PFD - across PT education

Celebrating the PFD - Press Freedom Day across PT education

Freedom of Press is freedom of information. It's as fundamental as that. The lack of the right information leads to ignorance and does not have the power to take us forward on the evolutionary plane. To play its own part, PT education felicitated excellence in journalism and communication on Press Freedom Day on the 2nd of May 2009. Nation building and social causes need fearless communication efforts and we need to salute the efforts and the people who initiate them! We need to salute their spirited efforts to promote peace, harmony, and human rights. PT education, the largest all-India value-added professional training institute, observed “Press Freedom Day” at all its 80 centers across the country. On this occasion various activities were organized. The theme of all the activities was Press Freedom in India. Many media personals, PT students, PT education faculty members and other staff members actively participated on this occasion.

It’s time to celebrate the Press Freedom Day!

The top management of PT observed that providing complete freedom to the media is vital and also emphasised against imposing any sort of restrictions on it. We at PT feel that human rights and the guarantee of dignity of the human soul is linked directly with a responsible media that is fearless and free. Especially so in these turbulent times.

The activities of the occasion included speeches by leading members of media, group discussions, extempore, debate, skits, and press freedom related information.

Spellbound audiences at the seminars also realized the importance of what Aristotle remarked: “You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.” Courage is nothing but a developed will-power to pursue an aim with single-minded devotion. Developing your will power is directly related to your success in life. No one can over-estimate the power of your will to do.

The Press is considered to the Fourth estate of democracy. And on the vibrancy of Indian polity and press, PT education has decided to felicitate excellence in journalism and communication on Press Freedom Day from the next year onwards by setting up awards. All in all, it was a grand team effort by PT zens across India, and the media was delighted that such a positive initiative was taken.

Surely, Kar Ke Dikhayenge...
