Welingkar Institute Of Managements Hybrid PGDM Is Evolving With The Times

Online, February 6, 2014 (Newswire.com) - In keeping with the times, technologies utilized for distance and online learning have evolved and now include: audio recordings; television and/or video recordings; computer-assisted instruction; group communications; the Web and multimedia materials; simulation and gaming; collaborative learning; collaborative knowledge systems; immersive simulations; and wireless and handheld devices. Most current distance courses have incorporated one or more of these technologies or methodologies.

Welingkar Institute of Management, an autonomous Institute, has pioneered a new push in higher education with its Distance Learning Programs. The Institute has evolved into a serious educator with new technologies and innovative concepts that are practically oriented, in order to increase engagement with students who are either unable or choose not to attend full time classes. The Hybrid Programs are built on the philosophy of developing result driven knowledge while making the distance learning platform more interactive.

The Hybrid Program offers 16 subjects of specialization. With ten subject specializations already in place, Welingkar's has added 6 new verticals, making the syllabus scope even wider.

Welingkar's Hybrid Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM-HB) is a combination of modern and traditional teaching techniques made available through virtual class room, online sessions, personal contact programs, experiential learning, workshops, mobile applications, innovative learning tools and industrial visits. This has earned Welingkar the recognition of being the 'Top Distance Learning Institute of India'. The basic intent is to help students enjoy 'Continuous Learning' and conveniently, at any time, at any place.

Director of Welingkar's, Mr. Uday Salunkhe says: "Welingkar's Hybrid Program 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 modern technologies for distance and online learning. Welingkar is continuously improvising the advances that have been made in the quality and sophistication of the virtual classroom learning platform ensures that it is no longer a technological promise, it is a mainstream reality and our Hybrid Program is geared towards fulfilling this goal."

Student Ms. Rebecca Figueiredo is of the opinion that: "The study materials and methodologies at Welingkar's are so good that I could not find the difference of in-house classes and hybrid learning in distance mode. The learning CD, audio recordings; television and/or video recordings; computer-assisted instruction; group communications, the Web and multimedia materials; books and visits helped us to enhance our knowledge in each field."

Perhaps the most appropriate conclusion of this article is the comment of Charles Darwin on the evolution of life as it might be applied to Universities and the evolution of teaching methodologies : "It's not the strongest of the species that survives, not the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change." Charles Darwin, Origin of Species, 1859
