Every qualified young person should have access to a high-quality education at a reasonable cost. Furthermore, educational pedagogy should not be an impediment to young people. We've built an online learning platform with ATechnos that will give SCOL students access to e-learning, live online classes with expert faculty, faculty chat sessions, e-books, and on-demand exams, all delivered through a sophisticated web and app-based learning management system, resulting in a large Virtual Campus.”

According to a study conducted by employment portal SCIKEY Market Network, nearly 70% of employees in India believe there is a gap between the talents they have and the skills they need to best execute their job. Aside from traditional academic courses, higher education institutions must meet the demand for new-age skills. Symbiosis hopes to close the talent gap with this new platform, and ATechnos will provide technical support to Symbiosis in order to keep the platform updated when new requirements arise.

This new technology-driven platform offers a shared marketplace with numerous degree course buying options, knowledge sharing, teaching aid, live classes, and an e-learning facility. Here, undergraduate and postgraduate students can choose from a variety of degree programmes. Students will be able to finish degree courses in a classroom-like environment despite sitting thousands of kilometres away. Students can also take an exam when they are ready because of the platform's learner-centric testing approach.

Review of Symbiosis Center Of Distance Learning.

Placements: I can say average placements; the number of companies that visit is high but the hiring number of students is low; most of us were rejected in the interview round. The top hiring companies are Global Logic Tech and KPMG. The average package is Rs. 4 lakh per year. Only a few of us get internships. The top role offered is business analyst.
