Luxury Connect Business School eyes North Eastern students to train and create skilled workforce
India’s first and only Luxury B School - Luxury Connect Business School (LCBS) finds immense potential in the region for luxury and retail sector

With a target to enrol 25 % to 40 % students from the north east in each of their courses, India’s first and only Luxury Business School - Luxury Connect Business School (LCBS), Gurgaon conducts an interactive session in Guwahati today. The session was presided over by Akshay Gupta, Manager Operations, Luxury Connect Business School.

“We have ample number of enrolments from NE for our certified courses. Our first enrolment for the retail and luxury course was from NE. Students from the NE have a natural affinity towards retail and customer service and with proper training and education, most of them can be converted into wonderful sales ambassadors. The courses offered by us will accelerate growth for candidates who are interested in building a career in the same field”, said Akshay Gupta, Manager Operations, Luxury Connect Business School.

“While it is not uncommon to see sales persons from North-east in the general fashion, beauty and skin care, wellness, gourmet, hostess, event coordinator categories; it is very rare to see them in the high end premium and luxury stores. LCBS wishes to open up this opportunity to them via its specialised offerings and job assurance”, adds Akshay.

As it is seen, an ample number of students are going abroad for higher studies in the recent past hoping for more job opportunities abroad.
