After entering the organization, they face with relatively challenging situation in communicating with the people, adjusting to their culture and in maintaining inter-personal relations in a multidisciplinary environment. Without coping up with these challenges, it is difficult for them to sustain in multinational culture, even if possessed with high range of technical skills. To mound and develop the students with respect to their personality and competency skills according to the job requirements of an organization, soft skill training is considered as a best choice for the academicians. But, developing the soft skills of engineering students is not an easy job like development of technical skills.
