IMA’s virtual university, global education

magine all facets of your life – school, work, health, leisure, and spiritual etc – monitored and assessed from birth-to-death through one comprehensive “system”. Under the banner of “Global education”, such a system is evolving.

Education has been redefined and recreated by the Indian Management Academy (IMA) sans traditional boundaries. Dr G D Singh, the IMA founder & director, has created waves in the education industry by catering opportunities for the global community.

He has vowed that the world has no boundaries today and is open for all avenues and opportunities. With the effect of globalisation, the need of redefining education has been addressed to.

With global education, the traditional goal to develop the intellect is replaced with an emphasis on attitudes, values, habits and social behaviors. “The world is indeed one global village” “…we must dedicate ourselves to the reform of our educational system for the benefit of all – old and young alike, affluent and poor, majority and minority”, says Dr Singh.

Further adding he said, “The search for solutions to our educational problems must also include a commitment to life-long learning.” “…life-long learning will equip people with the skills required for new careers and for citizenship.”

The IMA has shown a vital interest in redefining global education with the launch of IMA-Virtual University and 10 new verticals for the benefits of students all over the world.

It has now launched courses in all avenues which are about to sweep the world of the floor. The IMA courses help nurture the managers, technology professionals, healthcare professionals, hospitality managers, fashion enthusiastic, para-medicos, dentists, sngineers, journalists, event managers and law makers.

No stone has been left unturned by Dr Singh in order to make these courses valuable to every individual at the same time cost effective. You name it and you get it with the IMA.
