The girl students are trained to be good women in the family and society through counseling, carrier guidance and sex education given to the outgoing students.  Talks given on healthy friendships have helped them to interact as brothers and sisters in the classroom. Workshops are a regular feature in many of the institutions to build self confidence and to guide the students to choose their careers.
