Learning model

Built around a working week

Live sessions run late in the evening and across an extended weekend, so they sit outside office hours rather than across them. Every session is recorded and stays in the LMS for your full programme duration - a missed class is recoverable, not lost.

Live sessions

Late night & extended weekend

Weeknight slots after office hours, plus the weekend - weekly during academic terms

Self-paced LMS

8-10 hours weekly

VGU Learning Platform - works on mobile and desktop

Cohort & mentor

110-140 learners per batch

Monthly 1-on-1 with a programme mentor

Live and recorded classes

Academic and tech support

Custom learning paths

Peer projects and forums

Multilingual AI lectures

Faculty interaction

The pedagogy commitments above are as published in the official programme brochure. Weekly hours and cohort size are as published on the current Online VGU build; the exact live-session days and timings are confirmed at cohort allocation.
