G.I.F.T. “GIFT is the only Design Institute, where under professional standard
Design Education is not profit oriented.
Gift is named
after Mahatma Gandhi one of the foremost Architects of Modern India.
It has been
launched in order to create a platform for those who wish to learn Designing
with no barriers of Educational Background and Language.
GIFT’S
ideology of imparting knowledge honestly in the simplest manner and that makes
it easier for each student to learn our vast Design Course rapidly. Thus we
follow the meaningful result oriented system. While talking about
professionalism, the concept of self-reliance comes in which means one has to
practice the “LEARN and EARN” Policy and that too, BURDEN LESS without Home
Work.
“DESIGN INFINITE INTAGLIO”
Magnetizing art through the
sorcerer’s splashing of wonderful thoughts,
With meaningful abstract ideas
of heart,
As like a clever crow’s mind
sort,
Like a directional continuous
tortoise walk,
Without a giving up attitude
as a confused fox,
That gives a way to GIFT
students.

of gift individual learners learning of ethnic, formal and fusion garment in
wearing style of such as casual, formal and classic in accordance of individual
gift learners measurement to enhance all appropriate garments fitting with
comfort and falls (drape) which is actually Tailor Made Garment, beside gift no
other institute practices & teaches, along with wearable fashion
accessories and gift perfect common learning foundation design education
program, which is taken care of from gift faculty, technician, craft person
and guide individually, practically, skilfully with patience, demonstratively
in very transparent manner for all easy or tough gift design subjects in style
of symphonic links, from one design subject to another in harmonious
synchronize manner repetitively in its enigma of design subjects appropriate
character in order to every day advance level progress of each gift individual
learner etiquette ethos of social life and
professional practice.
The above all said
mention, accomplished individual gift learner life gesture idiom, which easily
realize & elicited of its all entice by others, which is true itself idiom
of gift individual learners social norm and their natural effusive glory and
they carry always with them where ever their present. That is why GIFT GANDHI NGO DESIGN EDUCATION DIPLOMA POWER is emblem
high & with esteem depth, than any known or unknown deem or private
universities diploma or degrees. We never sells our diploma, for that one need
to work hard and gain as per gift design educational standard and that too with
out home work that means no cut paste presentation at gift and only genuine
learning in front of every one. This shows no gift learner can escape from
day to days learning and it is vice-versa, that no one can fool each others,
may be student learners or gift faculty. So where is the question & why
gift need to buy false deem or private universities paper, that gift design
education rejects. Certainly all the educational
standard wise known universities, will not affiliate or give affiliation to
gift design education, because there teaching pattern are fixed and unnecessarily
stretched and elongated and they can not reduce teaching time from 4 years to 7
months as like G.I.F.T. Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India and now Global. And gift
teaching pattern are short term and part time, since beginning and individually
teaching, even though the biggest designing course abstract globally under the
throne authority of gift known faculty, guide and founder of GIFT, Prof. Khalid
Ameer Rafique. Because education and teaching is a noble profession &
foundation of nation, think how gift can destroy that. Since 1995, that means
after seventeen years (1995-2012) of gift actual noble cause in favor of
learners, learner strength is not cross even number 500 and in future it will
reduce more for quality of education, by virtue of God Almighty.
Where is the doubt?
Which I can not deny, the shortened design education idea, wasn't mine..,
it was NID, idea and very often discussed at NID in the year of 1983-1984, that
time I used to go for teaching as a visiting faculty and for such cause Arvind
Mills Ahmedabad Allowed me half a day where I was senior designer of weaving
section without deducting the salary and even though, I have not charged from
NID for conveyance in favor on NID students and onward 1986-1988 I use to
come from Jaya Shree Textile Linen Mills, Rishra, West Bengal for the same
purpose. That time I usually think why NID is trying to cut short five and half
years school leavers design education program by at least a year.
I used to wonder,
it is necessary or under some pressure or is it their realization???? Because
the same design regular course I had done from NID, due to that my curiosity
built up, which design course they will omit and at what stage of learning,
which I never used to admire and how they will slash learning time period if
they are not omitting any design course then how they will manage, so many
question and it was sabotage in my mind for calculating design education of
NID. Then after some time my mind swing in right direction to my queries enigma
in totality to succor me and then one day I found my self functioning in the
right manner as I got sacrosanct direction to the life. Than I was able to see
the light in, for short term design education and that idea of short term seed
sprouted in a manner of not to chop any branch of basic design education, which
I have learnt in past at NID. Due to the
God Almighty, I got the mission in life to simplify all design courses
along with, how to cut down learning cost, in favor of universal learners and
“result” of that is “GIFT” Ahmedabad-Gujarat-India and now Global.
Many years joyfully I struggled while working in all
repute Textile industry such as Arvind Mills Ahmedabad, JAYA SHREE Textile
LINEN (FLEX) Mills RISHRA KOLKATA, West Bengal, Raymond Mills Thane, Gujarat
Spinners Gujarat and many more along with teaching at NID as a visiting
faculty, to simplify
modestly, those all design courses which I learnt at NID as a student and in
continuation new design subjects which I have found and learned, while working
in industry in favor of learners. After sound understanding, writing and
practicing the above said mention short term part time design education, I have
tested continuously few years with various level of learners, such as school,
college students, graduates, housewife (home makers), painters, doctors and
singers etc and finally my mission “GIFT” Design Institute swing in action
appropriately in 1995.
I have given to GIFT MISSION, 25 years from my golden era of young
life in favour to others and my gain is PEACE OF MIND which is beyond any
calculation in terms of loss and growth. And that is due to the God Almighty. Thanks to all
those, with whom I was associated in past such as kind, work wise, for any
human cause or socially, in life.
Gift is a mirror of design education as like
transparent crystal water and that essence spreads through gift Gandhi
learners, Google blogs and many gift Gandhi Ahmedabad web site in favor of
global learners.
What we have
achieved in so many years, we were not aware, but universal messages from
global learners and professionals we realize our standing for our noble cause,
actually what gift teaches in just 7 months in part time fashion or textile
design, which is actually more than four and half years, fashion or textile
design educational program of NID, NIFT STATUS and other known design institute of
the world. This was not imaginary but shocking to all of us such as pioneer
founder of gift, faculty, guide, craft person, technician and gift learners,
but certainly we all have developed fear about our gift design education
program, because we need to maintain our knowledge up gradation and education
standard of gift. After such knowledge and awareness, we all become more
simple, humble and kind knowledgeable for our noble educational cause, to avoid
such thoughts and understanding we all become more friendly and due to that at
gift no one can find any prejudice against each others and there is no
hesitation or hindrance about improving every ones standard knowledge wise and
there is no space for egoist at gift.
We all knows that no human has supreme power as like
GOD, we are human & we will remain for our noble cause great learner. Our
destiny is gift which is pure by heart and soul, what else we all need from
Almighty God. That is why gift all learners live life meaningfully.
GIFT design education
and design course abstracts as like crystal water & as like fruits are so
near to our reach on tree, loaded and bow down & as like knowledgeable
person, who never behave as like egoist, that means gift simple basic design
education is more power full than others advance design education. Today, I my self finding life age is less
and why short for such noble educational cause.
“We will teach and
learn from all those, who will come to share there knowledge and learn at gift
Institute Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, for the noble cause of design education in
favor of our human society, from across the globe”

MESSAGE
FOR UNIVERSAL EARNERS:
Thanks
to Poseidon the Greek Sea God for saving the Hollywood image of ‘Poseidon
Adventure’ the 1972 super hit film. The film was awarded many Academy and
Oscar awards. During those days it was a major challenge to film Big Cruise ship
falling upside down. With all the required minute special effects it had been
difficult task to create such master piece in early 70’s. End of the film
showed a few save their lives. The victims were fortunate for they used their
minds. Why few design students like the film end up being successful
designers and rest struggle for Bread and Butter from known Institutes.
This shows that only a few of the
students have thought logically. Those successful candidates have been fortunate
that they escaped from the misleading thoughts of faculties at the huge Titanic size design Institute. Perhaps
they were smart who knew the life is
full of struggles.
16
or 17 year Old School Pass students need true teachers rather than Mentor or Guide
in their learning. When will
the authorities at such institution understand this fact? Perhaps they will never. Yes, because once
the students come to know the way to learning, faculties would not bear that
for they are not accustomed to painstakingly teach with demonstration
skillfully every time. This is their weakness not egos, Escapism.
GIFT
is far ahead. Why? Along with demonstration the recalling power of faculties
and students make their intellect fight internally for grasping more knowledge
which flushes their past with newly upgraded knowledge of design skills, and so
faculties never gaga their achievements in front of students what they have
achieved in their lives. But at other design Institutes their faculty share with
students many gimmicky false stories of their success. The lazy attitude of
faculties keeps students in dark. When students struggle for results and fail
they feel depressed as a result they bunk classes. Think whose MISSION
succeeds? And what of those who have borrowed loan from Bank for studies. How
they and their parents will cope with debts and failed Design career if from
NID and NIFT. If you are Indian, Introspect.
We need to Change our Education system which should be simple and useful.
NID
and NIFT faculties should do justice with their salaries at least for God
sake.
The
truth cannot be denied and if, yes, and then show the white paper in this
regard. By Nidian.

“GIFT
IS WORLD’S FIRST SHORT TERM AND BIG DESIGN EDUCATION NGO INST”
GIFT is
universally known for quality of design education. GIFT teaching methods which
does not hinder learner’s progress and false promises are nowhere in the way to
teach them. GIFT design education course is developed in favor of Indian
Learners which is genuine, pure and good, not like others copied from overseas design
Institute teaching course abstract and methods. GIFT design education has
enough empirical teaching methods and multiple synchronize conceptualization
process of its recalling subjective power in each steps of teaching by faculty
and learners learning. In this style of teaching and learning, almost GIFT each
design subject story with practice umpteen time repeats, in GIFT students
learning tenure and results is their basic designing knowledge is beyond than
other design Institutes learners advance level design skills. That is why GIFT
Students can draw learnt design subject concept in front of any supreme
authority without eraser any hindrance, hesitation and hiccups and this happens
due to their regular practice of design conceptualization and design making,
their this confidence simply built them great beginners to entrepreneurs.
Even though top design Institutes
Faculty are WONDERING how it is possible at GIFT , where students are learning
in SHORT TERM biggest MAJOR design courses with authority and how they DICTACTE
MARKET confidently in their every day professional practice. Simply GIFT
MISSION is design education and NID and NIFT MISSION is STUDENTS FEES. True, 4
to 5 years learning from NID, NIFT and same status design Institutes, students
cannot draw with ease in front of others, which means their learners are lost
in some other activities which is more entertaining than their design education
today and their faculty, may be or not, is like watchdog. Their Wonderful
Facilities can lift INDIA in TOP SLOT of GROWTH GRAPH in the world, but now
graph is in down trend why? GIFT is accountable by mission full design
education policy and because mostly learners are from close by and their
parents can reach us any time to check their wards growth and we are
responsible to give proper answer in favor of GIFT learners GROWTH any time.
GIFT
does not BELIEVE in gimmicky design education as such like evening design
course or summer vacation design courses like NID and NIFT do conduct
regularly, because if they can teach in short term than why they have 4 to 5
years regular design education?
JOIN
GIFT FOR BEST LEARNING AND DO NOT WASTE YEARS LIKE NID AND NIFT STUDENTS DO AND
SPEND LESS AT GIFT AND LEARN MORE. Ask
question to GIFT and ask them as well. See who bravely explains well.

“GIFT IS WORLD’S FIRST SHORT TERM DESIGN
EDUCATION NGO INSTITUTE”
Why
GIFT is Different than other Design Institutes because GIFT provides total
learning materials in House and due to NGO MISSION OF GIFT, others not.
“What
was NID and what NID is now, Read this”.
Before 1980’s NID TUTION fees
only, approximately Rs.1000/- and in the year 2014 after 34 years is Rs.120000/-
all most 12000% rise according to property market and their education deteriorate
accordingly than when NID Graduate will have own house to live, think?
Total NID fees: tuition fee
120000 + studio and KMC/Infrastructure 55000 + Hostel + Electricity 25000 +
Insurance 2000 + Student development Funds 400 + Film Club 200 + Security
Refundable 10000+ Mess Charges 3300 x12 or 11+ Canteen Bills lowest = approx
Rs.250400/-INR + Canteen Bills lowest Rs.15000/- + Learning Materials lowest approx
Rs.40000/- + lowest Pocket Money Rs. 12x5000 = 60000/- + Mobile and entertain
Bills lowest Rs. 30000/- = Traveling Expenses lowest Rs.20000/- which means Rs.415400/-INR.
Before 1980’s it was less than
Rs.15000/- which means 2769.3333% rise in learners expenditure for learning
designing at NID, which means their tuition fee structure is FOBS, otherwise
rise in fee should be overall same. Think in the year 2020 NID design Education
Fee will be Big? And result may gets more deteriorate. For Building they do not
worry about rent, Due to Education their Electricity and AMC Tax bills are may
be Discounted, their Salary comes from Central Government than why so much
burden NID Students Parents, THINK?
One
3 x 4 foot Table in Studio and same size sharing in KMC is costing student
Rs.55000/-every year, than how come NID Design Education is Got deteriorated.
NID all learners should be Genius?
“NID” MUST THINK,
FOR POOR STUDENT LEARNING & PARENTS

MESSAGE
FOR UNIVERSAL LEARNERS:
In
NID around 1350 students every year pay Rs.55000/- approx as Studio and Knowledge
Management Centre (KMC)/It Infrastructure charge. This means around 7.5 crore
rupees goes directly into NID treasury only for KMC/ It development. If this
figures are to be considered for a while then NID library books strength should
increase approximately 25% each year and surprisingly after 20 years NID KMC
will be as huge as NID campus. It is not a joke. Ironically NID’s fee structure
is in favor of students but when we ask basic question to NID Textile or Fashion/Apparel
or Life Accessory design or Design Management students about their learnt and
possessed KMC and Studio knowledge does not reflect requisite knowledge for the
said design industry. Then, what is the point for such soaring charges for KMC
development in the NID campus.
NID
should clarify, as to how much are they charging, for KMC, IT infrastructure
and Studio separately.
Irrespective
of the classroom and studio size, faculty’s teaching skills are worth praising
in design education. But that is again the talk of bygone era.
NID
must have more space for workshops and studios than KMC, because modern
students seldom have time for KMC’s books and it is quite evident that only a
few students are seen in KMC premise, in classroom learning time.
The purpose of stressing onto KMC development
is not yet clear when not above 5% of the total NID strength at a time use KMC.
Rectifying few of economic policies NID should rather concentrate on the
development of design workshops thereby curtailing KMC budget.
However, GIFT KMC is FREE to all GIFT Learners because GIFT is very selective
in buying books and other things. GIFT selects books for students learning not
for watching photos.

GIFT Students are more powerful and confident than other Institutes Learners.
If
you have learnt designing or not or even though being designer you are not

"GIFT NGOs Mission is to Search integrity of Design Education System of India"
Since when I graduated from NID in 1982 then after working professionally in reputed Textile Industry as Arvind Mills, Ahmedabad, Jayashree Textiles Kolkotta, where I first introduced Linen Fabric to India. Also worked with Raymond Mills, Thane where I have created various collection of superfine worsted suiting s for Domestic and International Market and teaching at NID as a visiting and full time faculty. Organized various Fine Art shows at places like Taj Art Gallery, Taj hotel, Bombay, Indore, Ahmedabad and many other places.
Visualization and Reasoning is the passion of my life since childhood. Most of my childhood that I spent was in a small town named Tonk, in Rajasthan. I used to wonder why a student finds it difficult a task for learning design courses and due to this my continuous efforts on research came into being. I came to the conclusion that any common man can learn designing if the faculty of that design institute simplifies the teaching methods and techniques along with versatile languages.
After spending 13 years of my sincere efforts with 20 hours of continuous work daily, all in one direction gave rise to G.I.F.T. where any common learner above 14 years of age without the barrier of language and education background can learn in a much quicker (part time than NID and NIFT). My research revolved totally around NID status design education and worldwide Fashion industries along with Textile. This means I move from scratch to G.I.F.T.
As we are all aware that after food industry the textile and fashion industry is the oldest but my mission is for a better Design Institute, where design education is made as easy as learning ALPHABETS. On the other hand, for one person to run such kind of an education system is a tough task. I would need many supporting hands. To find such abled and dedicated people is not easy, as we have known from the ancient to the present scenario the history shows the sense of intellectual level of a truly passionate, or a born teacher. They stimulate the light of life on time, as they are the best in knowledge sharing, preaching, teaching and they think and work in a direction of the student’s growth by all means, where are they to be found?
Today’s worldwide scenario of the design education is such where people play politics, hiding their weaknesses with hypocrisy or a snobbish attitude. That is the main reason why we remember our “gurus” and “prophets” bowing down to them in continuous posterity.
“By virtue of god almighty nobody can snatch away your knowledge from yourself till death then why would one not want to live for India, work for India and die for India“
That’s why G.I.F.T. is India’s Design Education.
My research began from the story of Adam and Eve who taught us how to live in a human habitat. Hereafter the story shows the mirror of different textile, art, craft, décor, painting, accessories like jewellery, costumes like ethnic, western, fusion, drape, wrap around of various era and civilization on continuous posterity.
During the 5th century in Greece where artists painted tunic costumes and hairstyle with jewellery and strong decored accessories in fine linen textile.
Further during the 15th century European craftsmen depicted artistically woven tapestry where men and women wear elegant costumes that were draped and in wrap around style
During 18th century the Kangara miniature paintings reflect “The Swing “ an allegorical Indian classic with ethnic costumes and is an immaculate blend of color, line, pattern and fine transparent textile cover which is entirely in a poetic mood and pattern.
Thereafter Fashion history reflects with minute details, meaningful illustrations, newspaper articles, fashion in boutiques, saloons, theatre, then cinema, costume etc which has been recorded in picture plates, text and now has been made simplified to the learners to understand fashion globally.
It is wisely said “NO DOUBT EVERY GENERATION LAUGHS AT OLD FASHION AND FOLLOW RELIGIOUSLY THE NEW
The G.I.F.T. mission is better than any other well known institute worldwide where any fresh learner can learn in less time duration at a faster pace for which only G.I.F.T. gives assurance.
The complete Design courses include:
Common Foundation Learning of 31 days.
Fashion Design of 4 to 5 months.
Textile 4 to 5 months
Jewellery and Home fashion Interiors (less than a month)
(Learning time pattern is 3hours a day, 5 days a week is common)
To begin with, it becomes necessary to keep fatalism in our vision. Almost 35years ago when NID and IIM were formed, 22 years ago when NIFT was formed, and 13 years ago when G.I.F.T. was formed, none of these above institutes were commonly known to people, but today they are famous because of the deliverance of their graduates who are now well established, Alumini.
It has been a human tendency where a person has a 1000 ways and ideas about lifting or stealing whatever is within their reach. This is highly prevalent in the present Design Education System. Instead of simply ORIGINATING 10 new ideas the learners of today indulge in the above mentioned false acts.
Why does this quality seem to be lost in today’s learners?
The only answer to this question is that these students or learners have lost the touch of meaningful education where knowledge is bounteous. For any subject the basic of that subject should be understood in detail and that lacks in today’s educational system.
EDUCATION AT G.I.F.T. IS DIFFERENT
Where learning is made easy which blends with one’s life magnificently, for a healthier and competitive growth of one’s own self in all directions just like a Banyan Tree!
True Design Institutes gain their popularity through word of mouth or the performance of their graduates and also the media to a certain extent whereas fake Design Institutes spend immense amount of money for their survival, ignoring the life of learners who need right guidance.
