The course is completely online right from the admission stage and does not have an admission fee. The course's duration is flexible too with anyone from across the country being free to enroll. The fees are also said to be 35 to 60 per cent lesser than the on-campus course fees.

While most of the sessions are recorded, the live sessions are conducted once a week, mostly on weekend evenings, aiming at working professionals who are probable to take up the course, says Shetty. Apart from that, there are also discussion forums for the students. There is no age bar for these courses. Shetty says that the students are also assisted in finding placements upon completing the course.
