Speaking on the occasion, Prof BS Sahay, Director, IIM, Jammu, said, “This is a progressive move for us and will expand our reach pan India. Online learning is gaining a lot of traction from all stakeholders and its growth in India. The Government of India has implemented various policies/initiatives to promote digital learning in the country.”

“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. The company has an integrated business model which will enable us to seamlessly impart executive education online. Also, Talentedge’s best in-class platform ‘SLIQ’ recreates classroom environment digitally through ‘live and interactive’ online sessions which enhances the learning effectiveness,” Prof Sahay said.
