Despite the advent of online education, 47 per cent of respondents to a recent survey preferred blended programs because they allow face-to-face interactions with instructors and teachers, and due to the credibility that a learning center brings to the table.
Five walk-in Manipal ProLearn Information Centers have been launched in Bangalore, and more will be rolled out nationwide in phases. These centers offer high-quality educational services ranging from Professional Certification Programs, Career Counselling, Test Preparations, Study Abroad Solutions and Soft Skill Development Programs.
