New Delhi, 27thApril,
2020: While
the world is grappling with Coronavirus and the economy has hit a pause,
certain sections of society such as students need to continue preparing for
some of the toughest competitive exams like JEE & NEET. With the
restrictions on conducting Classroom programs, most institutes are trying to
find ways to teach students Online. At VMC, they had it covered even before the
pandemic started as they had developed their own proprietary Online learning
platform called VMC GURU.
At
VMC, all of their regular classroom batches are running on schedule, without
any delay or disruption, with best of the faculties taking Live Online classes.
The Live Online classes shall continue till the restrictions are there and then
the students can gradually return to the classroom delivery as things go back
to normal .
They
have ensured that all of the batches that are scheduled to start in the coming weeks shall also start on time
with the Online Live delivery. The response to the Online Live Classes has been
inspiring with thousands of students joining and participating. The feedback
has also been very encouraging from both parents and students alike. Students
are also getting their doubts cleared in smaller batches from their centre
teachers during the Live Classes for good clarity of concepts.
On
the current scenario Mr Vishnu Dutt Sharma, CEO of VMC said “The pace at which
VMC and its students have adapted to the new reality has been a pleasant
surprise for us as well as our students and we are proud to say that our students
are well on track to prepare and ace competitive exams like they always have.
It is a great achievement as we have managed to eliminate the impact of
lockdown for most of our students’ preparations.”
Students
are gaining admissions into VMC’s programs through their flagship National
Admission Tests, which too have been conducted Online with unprecedented
attendance rates not seen even in offline classroom based tests.
This
isn’t the first occasion where VMC has managed to stay ahead of the curve, but
they have done so over the years: They were the first to introduce admission
& talent screening test for IIT-JEE coaching in 1990; First to introduce
computer based feedback and analysis of performance to students in 1995; In
1995, first to introduce a revision course for IITJEE preparation - Final Step
(FS); In 2007, for the first time in India, VMC introduced online assessment
for IITJEE coaching; and in 2011, VMC launched its Classroom Courses in 18
cities where classes were conducted
through latest VSAT Technology.
On
the “Learn From Home” side, with VMC GURU they have been enrolling and
educating students who want to study completely online. They have courses that
feature live classes from some of the best and hand-picked faculty across
India. The live classes follow the same pedagogy of teaching and the same high
quality of teaching as their coveted classroom programs but turn out to be more
cost efficient as VMC incurs lesser costs in delivering these programs.
The
online students will get access to the same resources – scientifically designed
study material, national level test series, personalized analysis and mentoring
– as is available to the classroom students of VMC. The Learn from Home solutions
have both light as well as detailed courses tailored to the unique requirements
of different students. This turns out to be a great solution for those students
who don’t have an access to VMC’s centres due to distance or cities or those
who require a more flexible program that can fit into their daily schedule or
even those who want the high quality preparation programs of VMC at a much
lesser price. VMC is also offering flat 35% Anti-COVID scholarships for these
programs to help students fight Coronavirus and achieve their dreams.
