IGNOU- A distance learning education like no other

I personally was in some other course and that's why i chose IGNOU as students choose IGNOU for their flexiblity affordability and recognition. The curriculum is generally relevant to industry needs but some areas might benefit from more specialized topics Preparation for the real world is 7/10 the curriculum provides a solid foundation but some students find it lacking in practical and hands on experience and industry specialists skills Suggested improvements: 1 Incorporate more case studies and internships apart from the assignments and practical files 2 enhance the online resources for the students 3 provide some good source of contact so that the students can contact and ask their queries Frequency and timing of exam: Term end exams- held twice an year in june and December Assignment submission- usually dates spread throughout the semester Practical exams- scheduled seperately in applicable on course
