Churning new professionals

“ Professionals are not born, they are created and crafted. Age is not an obstacle to be a professional. For making children professionals in any field it is the parents that should be concentrated on.The information about the various fields and the various opportunities which would help them in going to greater heights in these fields is to be communicated t them. In order to mold children as professionals in the field of pottery, the seminars as to how pottery could be beneficial to their children as a profession, the various existing and emerging markets for the pottery  and the various opportunities are to be conducted for the parents. This is different from training a set of doctors and other technicians about a new method of cardiac surgery. The differences are that in pottery’s scenario the people to be trained are greenhorns whereas in the case of a surgery they are already experts. The risk involved in pottery is less and whereas in the medical field the risk is very high since it involves the lives of the patients. The time that takes to create professionals is more in the case of children and less in the case of doctors and other hospital staff. The creative aspect is important in both the cases but it is to be more disciplined in the case of doctors where they try to use the newly learnt technique as per the conditions and feasibility issues of the hospital. All the hospitals cannot afford to use the same equipment therefore they learn the technique, modify and apply it as per the conditions of the hospital. So there is difference in the method of  transferring the knowledge and implementing it in different scenarios and thus creating professional in those respective fields.”
