I am still in school – can I manage a course?
Yes. Most beginner courses run 16–60 hours with weekday, weekend and holiday batches, so they fit around 11th, diploma or ITI classes without affecting studies.

A clear next step for you
Finishing 10th is the first real decision point. Some students move to 11th, some to a polytechnic diploma and some to an ITI. Whichever way you go, a short skill course in the holidays or on weekends puts you ahead of classmates. You learn to use a computer properly, type and format documents, work with spreadsheets or write your first lines of code.
At CareerKraft we keep these courses short and hands-on. Most run between 16 and 60 hours, so they fit around school or college. Trainers start from the basics and move at a steady pace. You can learn at our Katpadi, Vellore or Ranipet centre, or online. The goal is simple: real skills now, and a clearer idea of what you enjoy before bigger choices come.
I don't know which stream suits me
Trying a short course in coding, accounts or drawing shows you what you enjoy. That first-hand feel helps you pick a group, diploma branch or ITI trade more wisely.
My computer basics are weak
We start from switching on and saving files. Office Automation builds typing, Word, Excel and PowerPoint skills that every later course and job will expect.
Will this help me earn later?
Skills like Tally, Excel and AutoCAD are used daily in offices, shops and workshops. Starting early means you are already practised when you look for part-time or first jobs.
