and provide potential opportunities for graduates to work in destination countries through
post-study work visas.

8WEEK IN THE
LIFE OF A LEARNER (YEAR 1)
Online learning has now become the go-to mode of learning where students across the globe are
using these platforms to their advantage, allowing them to reduce dependencies on physical
lectures. Here’s a sneak-peek at what a week of study looks like!
Core Curriculum
8 hours
Though practical learning will be our main focus, it is just as crucial to prepare our
learners to be industry-ready. Keeping the average attention span in mind, we have
developed short videos that cover the important topics, while ensuring that the
lectures don’t get monotonous.
Personality Development
2 hours
Communication is key. Considering the high amount of competition that exists today,
it is crucial for individuals to improve their communication skills to impress potential
employers. Our personality development modules are dedicated to soft skill develop-
ment.
30 mins - 1 hour
Networking & Mentorship
Online learning is no longer lonely. Students will get to interact with their peers via
various platforms like discussion forums. Every learner also gets a dedicated student
mentor to help them through their academic journey.
Case Studies & Assignments
3.5 - 4 hours
Practice makes perfect. Post module completion, students will receive soft copies of
the content they completed, so that they can revise it when required. Every week,
students will be given an assignment that needs to be completed within the stipulat-
ed time.
9
2Project Presentation
3 hours
Presentation of assignments will be done on a weekly basis which would be graded
by our teaching associates. Students will be provided with feedback to ensure
consistent growth.
Non-Graded Assignments + HBR Case Studies
Students will receive access to case studies from the Harvard Business Review. This
will help them understand and address real-world business problems, thereby
creating a practical and engaging learning environment.
We understand online is new but in this new age we have to change the way we
learn in order to adapt and accustom ourselves with ever-evolving business and its
demands, hence the vision of the program is directly coming from individuals who
have had experiences in various corporate domains, which helps us address the
expectation gap that generally is faced by young graduates when they try to enter a
company’s workforce.
