Interactive Online Communities by WeLearn, Brought to you by Welingkar's Hybrid Learning

MUMBAI, May 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

A virtual community is a social network of individuals who interact through specific social media, potentially crossing geographical and political boundaries in order to pursue mutual interests or goals. Some of the most pervasive virtual communities operate under social networking services consisting of various online communities which offer the advantage of instant information exchange that is not possible in a real-life community. This interaction allows people to engage in enhancing educational activities from the comfort of their homes.

Users of online communities have access to thousands of specific discussion groups where they can form specialized relationships and access information in categories such as: politics, technical assistance, social activities, health, management, recreation and a host of allied topics. Virtual communities provide an ideal medium for these types of relationships because information can easily be posted and response times can be speedy. Another benefit is that these types of communities can give users a feeling of membership and belonging so that they can give and receive support effectively.

Education has moved from book to tab to smartphone to online virtual communities giving students a wealth of creative options to enhance the classroom experience - the ability to surf the internet or read books via the various applications or assimilate knowledge through online community sharing.

Welingkar's WeLearn uses the dynamic power of social media in creating a virtual learning platform to discover, share, and assimilate knowledge. WeLearn has been conceptualized with the objective of enforcing and supporting 'Continuous Learning' in a manner that defies all barriers of time, age and distance.

WeLearn focuses on online community building, where the user can enter into a meaningful forum for exchange of ideas/discussion to build and create engagement activities on topics based on one's preference. WeLearn's diverse communities are based on major management verticals - Human Resource, Supply Chain, Finance, Sales & Marketing and a host of allied topics to facilitate users to share knowledge and expertise in their field of expertise.
