Distance Learning - Education At Your Doorstep
Distance learning is a mode of education which gives you the flexibility and choice to join any course, irrespective of where you live and where the institute is based. Through this education system, you can join your dream course with any institutions which based anywhere in the world.
This mode of education is helpful for all in different scenarios:
Cost Effective
- Whether you are a student who has to do a job but wants to continue his/her study also
- You are living in a small city and can't go for higher studies to a big city like Delhi / Mumbai etc.
- You are living in a remote or rural area and can't go to regular classes
- you are already employed who wants to do a professional course for career enhancement
- Already employed person who wants to switch the career, but needs to do a related course but can't leave the current job
- A housewife who just want to do her dream course but can't go to college / university to attend regular classes
This system not only gives you the chance to do your dream course from home but it's also cost effective. As the fees of colleges/universities are higher for regular courses and there are other expenses also added to course fees. Doing any course through this mode is less costly.
Better than ever
In the past, distance education means, apply for the course and study yourself. The institution will send you the study material at your address and will let you know about the exams. The distance education is getting better, nowadays there are many options available like distance learning centre opened in remote locations which provide classes also at no extra cost, and many institutions provide online classes and solutions for your queries. The increasing use of the internet provides a new face to distance learning also.

Foreign universities are also coming to India and Indian universities going abroad, so as the competition is getting tough, universities offering better courses and better quality to stay in the competition.
