Experiential learning with exercises, reflection and social sharing ensures you have an engaging learner experience. We strive to combine deep learning principles with simple storytelling.
Not at all! Remember Aesop’s Fables, Panchatantra and the likes? And all the lessons you learnt as a kid? The human mind is naturally hooked to stories. Learning about different concepts through stories can improve your retention seven-fold.
Our course is structured into 6 modules. Each of these comprises animated video lessons, flashcards, application and reflection exercises which will make it engaging for you.
