Online learning is gaining a lot of traction from all stakeholders and its growth in India.

I believe online learning is a great value proposition for all Government and private institutions as a way to scale up and expand reach while learners get access to high quality education. This is our first step in this direction and we are very excited to embark on this journey with Talentedge.
