Case Study
Integrated Learning platform for an Education Provider
A business school wanted to develop an affordable online MBA program mapped to its existing classroom program. Their
main concerns were “will they get students who want to do online MBA or other programs? “Or “will the course pedagogy
and delivery be on par with their classroom ones?”. They were also unsure of how all the frequent quizzes and evaluations,
which are common in a typical MBA Program, will be conducted over a period of time.
The customer also wanted to target global learners rather than just local ones. Like in any typical project, time was a major
constraint faced by the team.
Simplilearn was given the ownership to design, develop and deploy the online course. The team analyzed the business
case and understood all the concerns that the customer had. Since the course syllabi were huge, the entire project was
completed in three different phases. The complete syllabi and tests and evaluations were divided into three equal parts,
each part being completed in every phase. More than just their courseware, Simplilearn aligned them with other better
courses available worldwide and successfully tuned up to deliver a better Online MBA program.
Apart from the cutting edge pedagogy in the form of simulative lectures, videos and presentations, Simplilearn also
offered features such as Virtual classroom, online discussion forums and knowledge base.
Virtual classroom allows for one on one interaction between the learner and the instructor and also enables the learner to
clear any doubt that he/she may have in the subject. Discussion Forum promotes peer to peer learning by ways of
questions and answers, ideas and thoughts sharing etc. Last, but not the least, knowledge base helps them clarify any type
of doubt or concern when the instructor is not available.
Simplilearn also provided authenticated testing and evaluation for the learners, which are in no way inferior to the
customer's testing and evaluation process.
Today the course is offered alongside their classroom one and has learners across various geographies.
