Essentially, learners with no prior design experience or training can effectively upskill in their chosen field. Our commitment to making design education accessible to a wider audience is further enhanced by our remote operation, which leverages key strategies to recreate a studio-based learning environment in an online space. The use of live interactive classes is one such example where we move away from the monotony of pre-recorded lectures and webinars, instead recreating an active learning atmosphere in the virtual space, ensuring accessibility, flexibility, and affordability for learners."

Career readiness in graduates is ensured through personalized career advice sessions on CV-building, interview guidance, and networking opportunities, which help learners seize key placement opportunities. The project-based pedagogy ensures that graduates have a market-ready portfolio, effectively showcasing their design expertise to recruiters. Additionally, the institute offers software training sessions alongside a broader design-oriented curriculum, ensuring that learners are well-equipped with industry standards upon completing the course.
