SEGi stands out as a trailblazer in preparing students for the competitive job market by integrating vital skills such as statistical data analysis into its academic curriculum. Recognising the paramount importance of proficiency in IBM SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences), the institution ensures that students are well-versed in this versatile software, extending their capabilities beyond the academic realm.
In a recent initiative spearheaded by the School of Business and Accounting, SEGi organised a transformative hands-on training session titled “SPSS Practical Training.” Guided by the expertise of Dr. Sanmugan, the session aimed to empower students with an in-depth understanding and practical skills in using SPSS. The inclusive nature of the training, drawing participants from various programmes and academic levels, underscores the universal applicability of SPSS across diverse disciplines.
Dr. Sanmugan’s meticulous introduction during the training session went beyond familiarising students with the software’s functions; it provided a hands-on, practical experience before independent usage. This proactive approach ensures that students actively engage with and comprehend the intricacies of SPSS, preparing them for real-world applications.
The resounding success of the hands-on training has led to increased demand from external educational institutions, further highlighting the efficacy and impact of SEGi’s approach in promoting data analysis skills beyond its campus. Driven by this success, the institution is poised to conduct a second session in the near future.
The institution expresses gratitude to Dr. Sanmugan for his dedication in imparting valuable knowledge and mentoring students in SPSS usage. The SPSS practical training not only elevates academic prowess but also equips students with practical skills vital for their future professional journeys. SEGi remains steadfast in its commitment to providing cutting-edge education, ensuring students are well-prepared for success in the ever-evolving professional landscape.
