Introduction

ERA Foundation partnered with various government organisations. A large number of enthusiastic students attend these career guidance orientation sessions as well as the Marg Career Guidance Test and found it to be interesting and beneficial. Since the test is multilingual, the students are able to take the tests in their preferred langauage.The Marg team has developed a unique technology helping the schools to overcome connectivity issues and could conduct these sessions smoothly.
