Boosting innovative ideas and perception  

As per the official website, “Out of the box thinking is solving problems through an indirect and creative approach, using reasoning that is not immediately obvious, and involving ideas that may not be obtainable by using only traditional step-by-step logic. In this unique course, such thinking is emphasised through rediscovering the known and unknown facts of mathematics logically, with an interesting broader perception of the manner of doing it.” 

About the course 

These courses are easily accessible from your school children to professionals and researchers. The four graded independent levels of the courses present multiple approaches to problem solving, debunking the myth that problem solving is for the elite. It introduces new techniques in an easy-to-understand fashion; prepares the users to face real-life projects with confidence and ease.
