| dc.description.abstract | The existing system of agricultural education has been found to be inadequate not only in providing all the required skills to agricultural graduates to compete in the placement market but also in finding opportunities of self-employment requiring their knowledge and expertise. The major source of weakness in the existing system lies in either a complete lack of emphasis or inadequate emphasis on the development of communication skills. Keeping this in view, the present study on assessment of training needs of agricultural graduates for a competitive edge in placement market was undertaken at the College of Agriculture with exploratory research design. The data were collected from structured questionnaire with focus on knowledge and self perception tests in all the areas of communication skill referred to above. The study revealed that agricultural graduates require training in all areas of communication skill. To begin with, attention needs to be focused on developing negotiation and interview skills. The findings of the study may be of help in arranging training for agriculture graduates of GBPUAT in communication skills. | en_US |
