Advantages of Becoming a Cell Member in a B-school

There is a strong connection between students and learning. Students have multiple sources and opportunities through which they can learn new things and accommodate them in their life. Students always need a better learning environment with adequate direction to achieve their goals. Learning is an extensive concept described by various scholars in their own ways.

“Learning is not attained by chance; it must be sought for with ardor and attended to with diligence.”  Abigail Adams

“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”   Benjamin Franklin.

“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.”  Mahatma Gandhi

The role of an educational institute in a student’s life is crucial. A student spends most of his time in these institutes. Parents also want to admit their wards in an exemplary institute. There are multiple institutes in India but few are rigorous towards students and ICFAI Business School is one of them. Since its establishment in 1995, it was proven to be one of the institutes where students can redeem learnings in various different aspects.

I joined IBS Gurgaon a few months ago and was looking for the avenues to enhance my personality. Meanwhile, this institute provides multiple possibilities to nurture myself through various cell events or activities such as extempore, group presentation, indoor and outdoor interclass competitions, etc. There are different cells to join and enrich yourself, Digital Marketing Cell is also one among these cells. It follows the footsteps of the formal corporate organisations where a well-defined structured & hierarchy under three domains that is digital marketing, video editing, and content development.

I was interested in video editing and also practicing it for the last two years. Therefore, I have applied to be a member of this cell as a video editor. After going through the formal selection process of three rounds, I hopefully waited for the results. As the results got announced, luckily, I found my name in the list and eventually, I became a member of the Digital Marketing Cell.

This cell works as a team with its own aims and objectives, under IBS Gurgaon. It follows organic means of doing any work under it. The moment I join it, I got the task assigned to me. It brings me a professional or the corporate touch as being a cell member.

Moreover, this cell offers one year paid internship program with certification to performing members in their respective domains. I am aware of the hierarchy, professionalism, culture, collaboration, and coordination within a company, but now I have experienced and learned about the same through this cell.

The cell covers every activity, event, and function, summed as co-curricular activities within the campus. I have to cover them and bring the precious moments to the forefront for the audience on social media. As a cell member, I capture the events and their activities which provide me with enormous exposure.

The precious moments captured from each activity are forwarded to the respective domain head to process further. After getting the work from the content team and the digital marketing team, the post is ready for final approval. After approval, it is ready to be posted on the official social media handles of IBS.

After posting, the team analyses at the insights of the post and review its performance on social media. Further, every domain will discuss the hurdles, issues, and plus points in the weekly meeting and try to find ways to perform better.

IBS offers to learn theoretically and practically through classrooms and through this cell. IBS follows the concept of the overall development of a student through these cells and the co-curricular activities. Also, this cell brings me the qualities of an institute ambassador by providing a connectivity link.

Overall, I can say that it is always a proud moment to become a student cum cell member at IBS. It puts me in a better learning mode where I am trying to gain the maximum knowledge and implement it in the future. ICFAI Business School provides an elevated runway for me.
