37. Activities of the Guidance and Counselling unit Faculty has constant interaction with the students and provides counselling and guidance regularly, especially at times of critical need. Gurukula system practiced by GRI enables each Faculty to closely monitor and guide a small team of students for individual attention. In addition, the Students counseling / Placement and Career Guidance unit, attached to Department of ACE & E serves students of High School and rural Youth, besides GRI students through the following programmes. Through students activities clubs career guidance programmes were organized. Dr.M.G.Sethuraman, Reader in Chemistry and Dr.P.Shanmugavadivu, Department of Computer Science and Applications organized a one day Workshop on Career Opportunities during the second week of October 2009. The Department of Gandhian Thought offers counseling services to the students of GRI Through Gurukula meetings the students are guided and proper counseling is made possible through one to one interaction. 38. Placement services provided to students The Institute has got a placement Bureau which registers interested students Corporates, IT firms, NGOs, Teacher Training Institutes and Schools avail the services of the Bureau. Besides the campus interviews, students are encouraged to attend off campus placement interviews. 39. Development programmes for non-teaching staff Training in internet browsing was conducted at GRI computer centre in two batches to the non-teaching staff. E-circular training was given to the non-teaching staff upto the cadre of assistant from LDC in the GRI Computer Centre. Also arranged a programme on Visual Basic to the non-teaching staff of the institute.
