The convocation ceremony of Suryadatta Institute of Management & Mass Communication (SIMMC-PGDM), a flagship institute of SGI, for the graduating students of the PGDM programme was conducted at Suryadatta Group of Institutes’ Bavdhan campus. Professor Dr Sanjay B Chordiya (Founder President and Chairman, Suryadatta Education Foundation), Snehal Navalakha (Associate Vice President, Suryadatta Education Foundation), Prashant Pitaliya (Director OD and CSR), Dr Sunil Dhangar, Dr Sunetra Gaitonde, and Prof Harshad Bhadange were present.
During his speech, Chordiya emphasised the need to establish a unique professional identity and a set of values and beliefs that will allow students to continue their quest for lifelong learning and distinguish themselves in their chosen paths. He further urged the students to contribute to India's Vision 2047 by sharing the knowledge gained at Suryadatta. He expressed confidence that Suryans would always strive to give back to society and contribute to the greater good of humanity at a global level. He also advised the students, as they enter their professional lives, to set a five-year goal for themselves and work towards achieving it.
