SHILLONG: R. G. Lyngdoh, Vice Chancellor of Martin Luther Christian University (MLCU) conferred upon the convocation certificates to 80 students passing out various Computer courses like PGDCA, DCA, DTP, Tally etc by the Shillong YMCA held at the Bharat Scouts and Guides Auditorium on Friday.
Speaking on the First Convocation of Computer Education of YMCA, Lyngdoh stressed on the need to impart vocational education besides the mainstream courses which most students undertake.
He lauded the YMCA for such initiative but yet stressed on the need to include carpentry, plumbing, masonry, electrical, embroidery, stitching, sewing and others, which will be an added advantage to the youths besides obtaining their higher secondary and undergraduate degrees.
“It is imperative that one considers work as a service and to take life with joy and laughter and to be a helping hand to others who are in need.” Lyngdoh added. 
Earlier the president of YMCA, G. Mylliemngap welcomed the dignitaries and outlines the activities of the YMCA in the city.
The Shillong YMCA will also host the Regional Meet of YMCA’s in North East India scheduled from July 27 to 29.
Special prayer to the students for achieving their dreams and endeavours in life was offered by Most Reverend Dr P. Lyngdoh who also pronounced the benediction.
