Hi there, First of all let me appraise you that LPU doesn't have any short term preparatory classes for placement interviews. It has a full fledged department which is called school of professional enhancement. The unique points about it are: 1. It kicks in early into the programme in semester 1 or 2 depending on the programme, not for few months prior to placements as in other colleges. 2. The focus is not only communication but many other skills like : Public speaking, personality development. Mannerisms, social etiquette, interpersonal and networking skills. 3. Right cultural sensibilities, ethics and work virtues, critical thinking and analyzing the situations are made integral part of its curriculum. So, it is the prolonged exposure to great communication and other techniques which inculcate the right type of professional skill sets into the students which not only help him/her in placements but also help them throughout the career. Hope this helps DVD.
