Managing Assignments/Surveys

A tree is nothing without its roots; similarly, education without assignments/exams. Assignments/Exams help trainers understand their trainees’ mental capacity and their shortcomings. Moreover, assignments/exams force the trainees to think about how they will solve them. Not only do they open the doors for a better personality, but they also improve skills of mathematical reasoning, communication, logistics, science, and the expressive nature of the subject, which will provide the platform with the ability to subtract their ‘failure’ and multiply their ‘success’.
