Besides the various Mission Acharyas, they are also taught by professionals from various fields of expertise. They get to dive into the scriptures while, public speaking sessions, training in presentations skills is also a part of the program. But it is not all work and no play; sports like volleyball, table tennis, Frisbee, Archery, tai chi have been added to the sporting activities. And that’s not all! Bhajans, movie workshops and festival celebration all find their place in the course too. How’s that for being a well –rounded course? Out bound experiential learning plays a big part of all YEP experiences, and that includes fire-walking, rappelling, night-walk, raft-building etc. At, YEP, there is no such thing as a typical day .Without even realizing it, the YEPsters learn to adapt and adjust from the very first week of their training period, being constantly kept on their toes. After all, if a change in schedule is difficult to deal with, then what about the ever changing circumstances in life?
This combination of Learn & Serve, by itself, culminates into Growth for a lifetime for a participant. This period of 14 months empowers the participant with a clearer vision for life and a new found confidence, enthusiasm to take on life and its challenges as opportunities!
It nurtures the patriot within each of us and develops us into empowered individuals ready to make a positive contribution to the nation!
So do you want to be just "someone" watching the changing tide from the shore or
"The One" cruising on the wave of transformation?
Say Yes to Growth! Say Yes to Excellence! Say Yes to be "The One".
Say Yes to YEP!
Come Learn, Serve, Grow the Yuvaveer way!
