Students have lifetime access to our eLearning Dashboard with online support to students. To ensure our students meet their aspirations quickly, our boot-camp style delivery helps in practical learning in the shortest possible time. KEY FEATURES The platform facilitates real time learning. For Technology courses every live session is split into both practical and theory sessions. Live sessions are followed by Assignments which the students have to submit and are assessed by Teaching Assistants. Live Online classes (Virtual) conducted by Mentor real-time : Acadgild is a preferred choice amongst learners because it takes the benefit of online, wherein the classes are conducted online and thus students can access courses from wherever they are, and do not have to -travel. It also ensures all the advantages of a classroom session is preserved where the courses are conducted by mentors on a live online mentoring format and students in batches of 30-50 login from their respective laptops from any location and interact with each other in realtime mode live (video, audio and coding platform) at select designated time and days through our platform. Students can interact with mentors • What does the student experience on the platform: On the platform each student will access a course and for every sub module students, would be sequentially taken through first a video course, then a live lecture (which is also recorded for access later), assignments and projects and quizzes. These live lectures and coding practices are followed by assignments that students have to complete as homework and upload on the platform which is then corrected at the back end by experts and students get graded for every class and every assignment. Thus by the end of a course a student would have done projects/assignments twice as many times as they would attend online classes, having graduated with hands on coding experience. • Program Curriculum:
- 4. Designed with inputs from top industry professionals. Our curriculum is refreshed periodically to include latest technology and trends and are a well-balanced mix of mentoring sessions, coding experience and real-time examples. • Mentors: Students learn industry-grade programming from our community of mentors, working with top IT companies whose daily job involves using these technologies as experts. All our mentors are experienced developers, designers or Data Scientists, who have minimum 4 years industry experience. • Pedagogy: Every program is broken down into individual sessions, which cover a set of concepts. Students are provided with course material for each session on the platform. This helps them read up before the mentor led session. During the session, the mentors take students through a deeper understanding of the concepts aided with real life examples for better understanding. Post session, assignments are given to the students to apply the knowledge they gained and implement it in code. All assignments are mandatory, reviewed and graded with feedback for each student. Small batches for personalized attention: Unlike other live virtual classes or self-paced courses, the expert mentors in our programs guide small batches of students through the fundamentals to the advanced concepts in a systematic manner designed for gradual learning. Students are introduced to the concepts and guided through building production ready real-life projects. Post every mentor led session, students rate their learning experience and to maintain consistent quality, mentor compensation is linked to session rating. • Student/Coding Support: Our support team is always up and working to help students wriggle out of any coding roadblocks faced. We ensure there is no delay in their learning and students always remain motivated. • Continuous Assessments The platform facilitates continuous assessments, thus students get assessed based on the assignments completed by them from the beginning of the course, for viewing . On completion of the course, they would be graded with 3 levels of certificates either Gold, Silver or Platinum where highest scorer would be issued with Platinum certification.
