Learning Smart: Through Welingkar's Hybrid Post Graduate Diploma in Management

MUMBAI, May 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

When Dipayan travels to college, he finds a comfortable spot in the bus and reads books on his smartphone. He doesn't subscribe to any newspaper. Instead he browses online. There are instant updates and information is just a click away. For him, going digital has been a convenient transformation.

The world is waking up to this new reader. It is transitioning into a new platform, where there is a possibility of reaching out to a wider audience at a relatively lower cost and creating new revenue streams. Likewise, education is on the same bandwagon. The latest education mantra: "Give today's tech-savvy students what they need, when they need it - and make it available on whatever electronic device they may be using."

Welingkar's Hybrid Learning For Professionals 

Education has moved from book to tab and now to smartphones, which is the pinnacle of buzzwords. Smartphones give students a wealth of creative options to enhance the classroom experience - the ability to surf the Internet or read books via the various applications. Earning a diploma/degree literally over smartphone is now the latest convenience for educational purposes and productivity.

Welingkar Institute of Management (WeSchool) offers Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM-HB) in the hybrid learning mode, an increasingly popular option, which combines effective online and offline study formats to make learning convenient.

The Hybrid Programs at WeSchool are structured to give professionals an in-depth knowledge on management subjects through advanced options like online lectures, online notes, online exams, experiential Learning, virtual classroom facility and personal contact program sessions as well as WeTube, WeMould Workshops and other innovative learning tools without disrupting professional commitments.

Uday Salunkhe, Director Of Welingkar's: "Welingkar's Hybrid Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM-HB), which is the next level in Distance Education mode, offers students a chance to enhance their career and educational goals by delivering quality education with specialization in sixteen areas through the distance learning mode. Welingkar is continuously improvising to meet today's highly competitive world and our Hybrid Program is geared towards this new trend in education."

Rebecca Figueiredo, WeSchool Alumini: "The 'smart' teaching methodologies at Welingkar's are so good that I could not find the difference between in-house classes and hybrid learning in distance mode. The learning CD, audio recordings; television, video recordings; computer-assisted instruction; group communications, the web and multimedia materials; books and visits and Smartphone examinations have helped enhance our knowledge in each field."

True... times are a-changing. "It's not the strongest of the species that survives, not the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change." And change is the need of the day!
