    Iis launches digital learning series ‘iis sikhaega’ for athletes

     MUMBAI: Bellary is bringing world-class coaching to your screen. The inspire institute of sport (iis), India’s premier high-performance training hub, has launched a new digital content series titled iis sikhaega. The platform is designed to provide aspiring athletes across the country with practical, expert-led lessons at their fingertips.

    The series will feature short, easy-to-follow videos released thrice a month on Instagram and Youtube. Content will range from the basics of fitness and nutrition to advanced training, recovery, and rehabilitation techniques, all explained by iis coaches, trainers and young athletes themselves.

    “Our mission has always been to nurture the next generation of Indian athletes,” said inspire institute of sport, president, Manisha Malhotra. “Through iis sikhaega, we want to extend our coaching and technical know-how beyond our campus and make it accessible to youngsters everywhere, especially those outside tier 1 cities.”

    With a strong focus on athletes from tier 2 and tier 3 regions, the initiative aims to close the gap between raw talent and professional opportunity. By breaking down complex concepts into simple, engaging lessons, iis hopes to make high-performance knowledge available to every aspiring sportsperson.

  • Giving information effectively a major challenge: Naidu

    Giving information effectively a major challenge: Naidu

    NEW DELHI: Information & Broadcasting Minister M Venkaiah Naidu has said information is “ammunition to fight social evils such as corruption, poverty, illiteracy and terrorism”.

    To ensure last mile reach and keep pace with the changing communication paradigm, the government communication needs to incorporate innovative and out of the box ideas. Innovative ideas such as Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Mann ki Baat and the MoU signed with Amar Chitra Katha for comic books on Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan influenced the masses at large.

    Naidu was addressing the Indian Information Service Officer Trainees of 2015 batch currently undergoing at training at Indian Institute of Mass Communications (IIMC) here, who had called on President Pranab Mukherjee yesterday. Minister of State for I and B Rajyavardhan Rathore and senior officers of the Ministry were also present on the occasion.

    Naidu said to effectively design communication strategy for various government programmes and flagship schemes was a major challenge for government communication managers. He added that communicating success stories about developmental programs like Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan (Clean India campaign) would inspire and motivate citizens and would engage them as stakeholders in the governance process.

    The Minister emphasized on the need for India Information Service (IIS) officers to learn and adapt to the new technologies, tools and techniques to enhance reach of the government; especially in the age of social media.

    “The social media perspective has changed the way we communicate and govern today, which provided challenges and opportunities for the officers to enhance government outreach,” Naidu said.

    In his interaction, the Minister emphasized on the need to be progressive in thought and take pride in the role and responsibility assigned to each officer. He specifically mentioned the initiative taken by the Ministry to institutionalize capacity building through appropriate training programs at different career levels. Naidu also assured the officer-trainees that the quality aspect associated with capacity building issues in the training programs would be improved to meet the communication challenges.

    Rathore advised the officer trainees that there was a need to continuously learn and add value to their skills as well as the organization where they would be working.

    IIS Officer Trainees also shared their experiences of the past nine months of training with the two Ministers.
