There is no end to learning and never a time to stop going back to books. Kalyan Kumar Kanji is living proof of this maxim.

Ghaziabad (I-Newswire) September 22, 2012 - There is no end to learning and never a time to stop going back to books. Kalyan Kumar Kanji is living proof of this maxim. He is working with Shapoorji Pallonji & Co. Ltd. as Asst. Vice President – Operation, Execution Head of North Region Construction Division. He has had 28 years of work experience in the field of civil engineering in different countries around the world. He is a graduate from Jadavpur University in Civil Engineering. And he is a PGDM fromIMT CDL!

Kanji is proud of his work at Shapoorji Pallonji and has immense respect for the integrity and ethics of the company. He is also appreciative of the prestige attached to his role and the opportunities that the job offers to create landmarks.

Sharing his reasons for enrolling PGDM at IMT CDL, he says, “I needed new ideas to handle professional crises. I thought a management course could help me with that”. Kanji recognises the importance of adhering to schedules and counts that as a key strength at IMT CDL. Dedicated staff for distance learning at IMT is what helped him decide to enrol with them. The institute’s integrity towards student learning also impressed him and helped him complete his course.

The most important learning for Kanji has been the behavioral training, which he feels that has helped him a lot in his current employment. The convenience of distance learning, stringent timelines and schedules and faculty support helped him navigate his course successfully. It also helped that IMT CDL is located close to his residence, but he feels that the online mode is convenient, and not a challenge, as many people may believe it would be.
