Introduction to Distance Learning Courses

Distance learning an important two word phrase which is not complete when standing alone.Distance From far of place , where communication is not face to face and second is Learning Knowledge enhancement.These two words together made it Distance Learning.

Earlier students use to go to far of places in search of learning as great teachers use to be at distant places but with time Learning became more convenient and like earlier days when Kings son like Lord Rama had to go to different teachers far of from his palace in search of knowledge or learning , today Learning comes to us , Inform of colleges & schools it came closer to us with time and now internet has brought it at our hand , but before internet Distance learning had actually started inform of letter communication and proved to be nice ,methodology where education could not reach uptill now may be because of following reasons.

Distance learning

Distance learning courses

1. Lack of time : Due to Job or other activities

2. Lack of money: Distance learning is also a cheaper way of getting educated due to  less direct involvement of physical teacher.

Today Distance learning education has become solution of all educational problems

Distance learning courses in India has been divided in two types of universities.

1. Universities like IGNOU , Symbiosis , Lovely Professional , LPU , IMT  where a student has to complete his/her entire course and go through stringent examination process to pass. Passing percentage in these distance learning colleges are very low. For example on an average passing percentage ratio from IGNOU courses is about 30 % where as in case of MBA at IMT it is as low as 15%. Distance learning courses from these universities which forces student to study like a regular college makes it difficult for Job going people and Home makers who wish to study as a part time. But taking classes from study centers or coaching centers help students in there semester exams

Type 2: 

b. KSOU: Karnatka State open University
c. MGU : Mahatma Gandhi University

Some universities claim to offer degrees in just six months, conduct all exams at once, or even allow backdated admissions, providing passing marks as long as fees are paid. While these degrees may appear UGC-recognized, students must exercise caution, as many consultants simply issue printed marksheets with no official record in the university. A recent example gaining media attention was EIILM University, highlighting the need for careful verification before enrollment.

Although general fee structure is same in most of colleges like Rs 40,000 for Post graduation or MBA degree and Rs 32000 for graduation degree and if some one is charging you less then, I would suggest better confirm.
