Challenges Before Univariety
1. Limited Career Guidance Resources
Before partnering with Univariety, DPS Bangalore struggled to provide comprehensive career guidance to its students. The school lacked access to a wide range of career counselling tools and personalised support, making it difficult to help students explore diverse career paths and make informed decisions about their futures.
2. Disconnected Alumni Community
Another significant challenge was the lack of a cohesive and interactive alumni network. Without an organized platform to engage with former students, the school found it challenging to maintain strong connections with its alumni. This disconnect not only hindered opportunities for mentorship and networking for current students but also limited the potential for alumni to contribute to the school community through various initiatives, support, and engagement activities.
