Cochin Academy Of Professional Studies

People usually find us by looking for the South Over Bridge first. Once you get off there, you just head down Kannanthodathu Lane. We are in the Mannancheri Building. It’s a plain place, nothing fancy to look at from the outside, but we spend a lot of our time here. Most mornings start with unlocking the front door and getting the fans going before the humidity picks up in Valanjambalam. It’s a busy spot but we like it. The rooms aren't huge, but they fit what we need for the professional studies stuff. You can hear the traffic from the bridge sometimes if the windows are open, which they usually are. We have a few desks set up and some old filing cabinets that have been here since we opened. Sometimes the rain hits the roof so loud you have to speak up a bit. It’s just us running things, keeping the schedules on track and making sure everyone knows where they’re supposed to be. There’s a small tea stall just a short walk away where we go when we need a break from the paperwork. We don't have a big corporate lobby or anything like that. It is mostly just stacks of paper, some computers, and people trying to get their work done. Valanjambalam is a good area to be in because everything is close, even if the lane gets a bit crowded during the peak hours. We’ve been in this building for a while now. The walls are a bit faded, but it feels like home.
