SP Jain School of Global Management (SP Jain) has announced the launch of 13 new online short term courses for undergraduates, postgraduates and working professionals. These 30/60-hour courses will commence in July 2020 and will cater to the growing trend of upskilling in a fast-evolving and uncertain world.
According to SP Jain President Nitish Jain, these courses will be taugh using a brand-new learning model called Premium Learning Online (PLO) which the institute has carefully designed to be on par with face-to-face classes on campus.
“Online is the future of education. But they have a fundamental flaw in that they are unable to engage and excite students. Unsurprisingly, most students drop out within a few sessions. Our new Premium Learning Online courses are taught live (using our proprietary ELO technology) by top Indian and international faculty that we have hand-picked for their proven success and expertise. Students learn by doing; not listening. We call this a ‘Lab-style approach of learning’, and this is truly a game-changer as far as online education is concerned,” said Nitish.

What is the Lab-style approach?
Every 15 minutes, students are given a practical problem to solve in a study group comprising 3-5 students. With this, students get the chance to apply theory to practice in a fun, engaging manner and get immediate feedback. A spokesperson then presents the findings to the rest of the class.
Dr. Silvia Vianello, one of the Lead Faculty teaching the ‘How to become a social media influencer’ course, said, “The curriculum is action packed with projects, case studies, group discussions and more; the objective is to make sure that student develop in-demand and relevant skills to enhance their employability.”
Dr. Silvia from Italy is a social media influencer with over a million followers and was featured in Forbes’ list of Top 100 Italian women. Admissions into her 30-hour course on ‘How to become a social media influencer’ are open, and classes will commence on July 12.
To share more information about these 13 courses, SP Jain School of Global Management will organise a series of webinars starting June 25.
