Virtual corporate classrooms

Working professionals who aspire to make the transition to management level tend to seek education programmes where the curriculum is in sync with corporate world strategies; where they get exposed to the technology that their seniors utilise on a daily basis. The icing on the cake for them would be a course where they can combine learning with earning.

Identifying this need, Welingkar Institute of Management Development & Research, Mumbai, is offering a variety of
flexible Management Education Programs including the Post Graduate Diploma through Distance Learning Mode PGDBA-DLP), which is recognised by Distance Education Council (DEC), a body of Govt. of India.
