The primary method of instruction will be through LIVE lectures that will be delivered online via internet to participant desktops/laptops or classrooms. The lectures will be delivered by eminent academicians and practicing industry experts. The programme will be primarily taught though a combination of lectures, discussions, exercises and labs. All enrolled students will be provided access to our FISST Whizard Cloud Campus through which students may access other learning aids, reference materials, assessments and assignments as appropriate. Throughout the duration of the course, students will have the flexibility to reach out to the Professors, real time during the class or offline via the FISST Whizard Cloud Campus to raise questions and clear their doubts.
There are periodic evaluation components built in as a part of the program. These maybe in the form of a quiz, assignment or other objective/subjective assessments as relevant and applicable to the program. A minimum of 70% attendance to the LIVE lectures, is a prerequisite for the successful completion of this program. Participants who satisfy the attendance criteria and successfully clear the evaluation components will be awarded a certificate of completion.
