In the globalized context and present scen ario, students of Engineering and Technology need a specific set of language skills for their success in education and career. English for engineering students poses a challenge to them. Industries are also voicing their concerns about the need for better communication skills among students of Engineering. They require an ever increasing range of skills to maintain relevance with the global environment of the new millennium. Communication is the pivot on which the globe revolves, recognized by academia and industry. Effective communication is an essential component for success, whether it is personal, professional, and group, organization or individual levels. A recent newspaper report said that: “Out of very hundred interviews, only five qualified for the employability. It is not that were technically not sound but they lacked in communication skills.” These are as important as school and college qualifications for youngsters aiming at a bright career. Students come with a wide variety of abilities, attitu des, interests, ambitions and levels of motivation that are effective for some students may be relatively ineffective for others. To balance these two categories our University suggests CALL Lab in acquiring proficiency of the Language skills.

Today's working climate demands a great deal of commitment and effort from Employees, who in turn naturally expect a great deal more from their Employers. Performan ce Appraisal must be seen as an intrinsic part of a Manager's responsibility and not an unwelcome and time - consuming addition to them. It is about improving performance and ultimate effectiveness. Performance Appraisal is a systematic means of ensuring tha t Superiors and their staff meet regularly to discuss past and present performance issues and to agree what future is appropriate on both sides. This meeting should be based on clear and mutual understanding of the job in question and the standards and out comes, which are a part of it. In normal circumstances, Employees should be appraised by their immediate Superiors on one to one basis .Often the distinction between Appraiser & Appraise .Assessment concerns itself only with the past and the present . The staff is being appraised when they are encouraged to look ahead to improve effectiveness, utilize strengths, redress weaknesses and examine how potentials and aspirations should match up. It should also be understood that pushing a previously prepared repo rt across and desk Cursorily inviting comments, and expecting it to be neatly signed by the Employee is not Appraisal - this is merel y a form filling exercise whi ch achieves little in terms of giving staff any Positive guidance and motivation. In SEMCO ELEC TRIC PVT LTD , Chakan , my research was a "Study of Employee's Performance Appraisal System" So to improve the condition it is necessary to review the performance of Employees. In this research , I had to study the current Performance Appraisal system at SEMC O & check the effectiveness of current Appraisal system. (2013)
