Online certificate programs from top tier colleges

Working for one of the leading EdTech platforms. Ever wondered what goes on here or want to know things from the other side AMA and I’ll try answering as much as I can.

We see that many reputed colleges/universities in India as well as abroad have come up with completely online versions of their Master's degrees for working professionals. It's also mentioned everywhere that we get the same diploma in the end as the offline degree. Do these degrees hold any value in today's world?

Hi everyone, I came across a 36 week product management course from IIM Kozhikode (Approx 1.8 L + GST) and a 12 week program from ISB (Approx 1.4 L + GST). Do these courses/programs help? I am interested in understanding product management better and if these courses will help me in achieving that (and potentially help my career), I might enroll in one of these 2 courses. A bit of background - I am nearing 16 years in IT. Was primarily into Automation testing and now am a Test Manager in a big4. I am okayish with my current salary but wouldn't think twice if a better role with better pay came my way. Also, don't mind moving from a Test Manager role to Product Management. I browsed through the curriculum and some of the topics I am already familiar with. Would you suggest I enroll in one of these courses and will it help having a certification from one of these institutes? I guess I could also read books and browse YouTube for knowledge but,I doubt that would have the same impact as one of these courses (provided they are of use and actually have good content).

I have come across some nice certificate courses from IIM being offered via online mode. How valuable are they and is Nulearn an authentic platform to offer them

I am working since 2 years in IT industry and am thinking of not leaving job and doing online MBA from a top Institute. I am not very interested in IT and want to change my field in Marketing or Finance side. Fess is 10 lakh rs. Is it worth it. I see this as the best option since I am not very confident in cracking CAT and doing a offline MBA from this type of premier Institute. Please share your thoughts on this. Any kind of comment or suggestion is much appreciated.

I have done my MBA from a tier 3 institute and find it a little difficult to make into strategic positions in my organisation. Has anyone found themselves in a similar situation in the past ? If yes then what was your roadmap to get into strategic positions in your organisation. Does the second MBA ( especially an executive one from tier 1 institute) make sense. Would love to listen to different perspectives here.

Take for example the IIT Kanpur E-Masters, I know that at a level, these are schemes for these institutions to make money, but do they hold any value, will the iitian tag be of any work ? I do want to pursue a masters but cannot leave my job, GATE doesn't provide any admissions in a good online masters. Any one with similar experiences? Other opinions ? There is OMSCS georgia tech, but I am not sure about that given my academic past. Anything 😕?

Hi Is executive mba from IIM Kashipur 2years program valuable..
