Chitkara Happiness Centre Hosts Financial Literacy Workshop for Career Success

The Chitkara Happiness Centre, in collaboration with the Chitkara School of Psychology and Counselling, recently organised an insightful workshop on “Financial Literacy: Navigating the Changing Global Financial System and Economic Landscape for Career Success.” The session was led by CA Dr. Aman Chugh and aimed to equip Psychology Department students with essential financial knowledge to support their career growth.

Dr. Chugh highlighted the critical role of financial literacy in today’s dynamic economic environment. He emphasised how understanding financial systems and making informed decisions can significantly impact personal and professional success. Students were introduced to the importance of strategic financial planning and how emerging technologies are reshaping global economies, thereby influencing future career opportunities.

The workshop encouraged students to recognise economic shifts and develop the ability to adapt to these changes. Dr. Chugh stressed that knowledge of financial concepts empowers individuals to make sound decisions, ensuring long-term stability and growth in their chosen careers.

The session aligned with the objectives of the National Education Policy (NEP), particularly goal 11.3 and 12.1, while also supporting the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 4 (Quality Education) and 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth). By fostering financial literacy, the workshop underscored the importance of equipping students with skills to navigate the evolving financial landscape.

Overall, the workshop was highly impactful, providing students with valuable insights and practical tools to enhance their financial awareness. Chitkara Happiness Centre’s initiative reflects its commitment to holistic student development, preparing them to excel in both personal and professional spheres.
