Open Learning on the Go!
People who are working and travelling have a great deal of trouble to keep up with the
education. Open Universities such as IGNOU help people travel, Work and Study at the same time. There are certain instances where professionals who have to travel to different places for work have benefited from IGNOU.
Isha Chaudhary had an opportunity to apply for sponsorship through her work for Masters in Business Administration (MBA) program at IGNOU. Since she was working in the human resources at the time so she took the opportunity to convert from MBA to Post Graduate Diploma in Human Resource Management (PGDHRM). She also mentioned that she started her degree at Kingston, Jamaica when she was working there. Then after few months she had to move to London with work where she had to study there for 6 months. Again she had to move to Singapore for her work where she completed her PGDHRM program. She quotes “Learning at IGNOU has been a global experience.”
There are many students like Isha who have to work travelling to different parts of the world. Indira Gandhi National Open university provides a platform to such students who have to travel,work and study at the same time. With open learning students can even have telephonic or online tutorials at hours outside normal working hours. Technologies like whatsapp has made that possible more efficiently. ICA also provides such flexibility for students in Nepal. As overseas partner institution of IGNOU, ICA has already established itself as the best overseas partner institution in past years. IGNOU has already awarded ten brilliant learners from ICA with gold medals.
