IIM Kozhikode has set up a virtual interactive learning platform to expand the reach of its Executive Post Graduate Programme (EPGP) for working professionals in 21 cities across India.
Instructors from IIM Kozhikode Studios will facilitate learning through two- way audio/video synchronous telecommunication mode. Classes are scheduled on week days in the evening and weekends.
The Program is offered through TSW, the technology platform of Times Center for Learning and Hughes Communications India (HCIL).
The technology allows the Instructor to use power point presentations, video, audio, white boards and telestrators to effectively communicate ideas and interact with the participants.
Prof. Kulbhushan Balooni, Director (In-charge), IIM-Kozhikode, describing the EPGP as “a robust management program” said it was aimed at young working professionals in search of quality management education.
“In order to fulfil this requirement and maximise the reach, IIM-K in association with TSW has introduced a robust management programme,” he added.
“We are confident that thousands of working professionals will be benefited from this programme, who cannot attend our institute in Kozhikode. It will certainly help them develop and refine necessary skill sets to achieve success in their respective career,” Prof. Balooni said.
