- For MTech, candidates need a relevant academic background plus at least two years of work experience, while the PG Diplomas accept graduates including freshers.
- Courses use live online sessions often in the evenings or on weekends, emphasize project-based learning tied to real workplace problems, and assess learners through continuous evaluation, remote-proctored tests, and end-semester exams at designated centers in India.
- Learners can start with a PG Diploma and later move to an MTech if eligible, and the program already counts about 1,200 active learners and more than 500 graduates.
