The Hybrid PGDM combines  online lectures, virtual classrooms, e-learning resources, on-campus sessions, and weekend workshops , making it one of India’s most future-ready management programs.

As a Student Counsellor, you’ll help guide candidates through this program — enabling them to balance work, learning, and growth effectively.

  • Participate in webinars, info sessions, and corporate outreach activities.
  • Collaborate with marketing and academic teams to ensure seamless communication and service delivery.

  • Lead-to-admission conversion ratio.
  • Student feedback and satisfaction ratings.
  • Timely response to student inquiries.
