Why schools partner
with AG

AG's school engagements are not motivational talks. They are structured, age-calibrated, India-grounded programmes that leave students and counselors with genuine tools.

01

India-Specific, Not Generic

Every session is grounded in India's real career landscape - not western models, not aspirational fiction. Students engage with actual market data, real entry pathways, and honest assessments of what different careers look like from the inside.

02

Author-Level Authority

With 23 published books on careers, Ashish brings a depth of documented knowledge that no visiting speaker can replicate. Students receive materials they can keep, reference, and share with their parents.

03

Counselor Upskilling

Beyond student sessions, AG can train your school's own counseling staff - building internal capacity so that every student interaction throughout the year benefits from a stronger foundation.

04

Parent Engagement

The most persistent obstacle to good career decisions in India is parental anxiety and misinformation. AG's parent sessions directly address this - giving families a shared vocabulary and a more confident stance.

05

Continuity, Not One-Offs

The most effective school partnerships are structured programmes spread across a semester or academic year - not isolated talks. AG offers both formats, with the institutional retainer delivering significantly better outcomes.

06

1,000+ Counselor Network

Schools partnering with AG gain access to an extended professional network of 1,000+ counselors and 2,000+ consultants - providing referral pathways, specialist connections, and ongoing support beyond the engagement itself.

Workshop and programme formats

Every format can be customised to your school's calendar, student strength, and specific objectives.

01

Career Exploration Workshop

1–2 days · Class 9 to 12 · 30 to 300 students

India's career landscape in a format students actually engage with. Interactive, case-study driven, and structured around the CARVE framework. Students leave with a clearer sense of what matters to them and what India's job market genuinely offers across different streams and fields.

02

Stream Selection Orientation

Half-day · Class 9–10 · Students and parents together

Addresses the single most stressful decision point in Indian schooling - the choice of stream at Class 11. Students and parents engage together with structured guidance on what stream selection actually determines, how to make it wisely, and how to avoid the most common mistakes.

03

Parent Career Orientation

Evening session · 90 mins · Parents only

A dedicated session designed for parents - helping them understand today's career landscape, separate good guidance from anxiety-driven pressure, and become genuinely useful rather than inadvertently harmful in their child's career journey. One of the most requested and highest-impact formats.

04

Counselor Upskilling Programme

Full-day · For school counseling staff

A professional development session for school counselors - covering the CARVE framework, updated India career landscape data, psychometric assessment principles, and structured student conversation techniques. Leaves your counseling team significantly better equipped for every interaction throughout the year.

05

Annual Career Culture Programme

Full year · Institutional retainer · All classes

The most comprehensive engagement: a year-long partnership covering multiple student cohorts, regular counselor support, parent sessions each term, and an end-of-year review. Schools on this programme build a genuine career culture - where intentional career thinking is embedded in the student experience from Class 8 through Class 12.
