New Delhi: Krescon, a platform to springboard the future, becomes India’s first-ever counselling startup to perform detailed advocacy for individuals’ career through NDP framework. The term NDP stands for researches through Natural tendencies of the human being via Vedic astrology, Desired attributes through psychometric tests and Perceived interest through expectations from the surroundings.

Speaking about the new initiative by Krescon, Mr. Anish Rakheja, Founder, Krescon said, “We keep hearing about suicides or rising depression rates among students or any individual due to failure in Career or wrong career choice. This pandemic phase that we are going through at the moment, made us see a huge number of layoffs, less to no new business opportunities and perplexity in choosing the right education option. Even when people go for the counselling options, they don’t really get a proper reason to choose a certain subject or career option, ending up facing a defeat in career and life. The NDP framework is our initiative to bridge this gap among individuals and the right path for their future. NDP framework is a multidimensional evaluation methodology that is influenced by astral science, psychometric findings and the family expectations to find out the best fit for an individual.”

In the NDP framework, a detailed and highly effective calculation is made based on the gender and course of life and is adjusted with the NDP findings, bringing out an in-depth profile of the respondent. This profile serves as an invaluable source of reference for informed decision making regarding one’s higher education and career choices. It also vastly increases the chances of success and happiness in the chosen field.

Based on a research, the market size for career assessment and guidance is currently estimated at over Rs 5,000 crore in India. India has an estimated 1 lakh professional career coaches compared to the need for 15 lakh career coaches to cater to the 315 million strong student market. In comparison, the U.S. has about 2.6 million student career advisors for 56 million students.
