Delivery via Hybrid Model
The course is delivered via a unique hybrid model with four residencies. Each residency spanning nine days, involves intensive classroom sessions spread over a year, interspersed with online interaction and group work.
This also Include two critical experiential learning pedagogies:
- Policy Walk: To get a firsthand experience in policy design and implementation, the participants embark on a unique visit to the corridors of power in New Delhi. The policy walk exposes participants to the workings of policymaking, design and implementation.
- Capstone Project: To provide an opportunity exhibiting practical application of the skills and knowledge gained throughout the programme, the participants address a relevant problem of public policy. Through their individual capstone projects, participants identify best interventions by applying lessons learnt in the programme.
This modular residency format facilitates acquisition of knowledge and skill sets without requiring participants to take a break from their regular jobs.
Technology Assisted Learning
The Technology Assisted component of the course is distributed over both pre-residency as well as post residency. It will be delivered via a combination of any two or more of the following tools depending on the needs of that particular module and the respective faculty:
- Live Webcast / Pre-recorded video
- Lectures / online tutorials (web based)
- Audio recordings of discussion of readings and case studies
- Online quizzes (either graded or otherwise)
- Online (either live chat or email based) Q & A sessions
- Assignments - submission and review of work done by each participant team
- Any additional write-ups, journals, articles or pre-reads as prescribed by faculty.
