The resource person, Mr Shrinidhi Shanker, brought out the importance of school outreach programs that the company regularly conducts to bridge the educational gap in rural areas.

The resource persons strongly encouraged students to consider internship opportunities with Cherri Learn that give better opportunities for students to visit the government schools and engage the school students and their parents to educate them on how to use the Cherri Learn platform.
