AMP Guidelines for Trainers

Life is beyond the opportunities you see in front of you. After gaining education and
expertise in your respective fields, it is now time for you to give back to the coming
generation. The students who you would be engaging with will be final year students
from various streams who need to be guided to face interviews in the corporate world.
This would open new avenues with new hopes that would lead them to success…Insha
Allah.

group activity, games, etc.

realistic time period here will build your credibility.

hand.

direction
