Several corporate customers have also used the Hughes Global Education service to train their dealers, employees, customers and associates across the country. The heart of this Hughes service is a powerful system that allows large numbers of geographically dispersed participants to have a highly interactive, ‘one-to-one’ exchange with the faculty. The platform offers interactivity similar to a live classroom session, where a student sitting in any part of the country, at any given point in time, can interact freely with the professor, raise questions, queries, etc. making the interaction as spontaneous and natural as in a regular classroom. There is extensive use of two video, voice and data. The pedagogy is highly interactive. It consists of a judicious blend of lectures, real life case studies, quizzes, assignments, etc. Hughes Global Education offers both monetary and productivity benefits to participants. There is huge savings on location transfers and living costs while continuing with their existing job, as the participants do not have to leave their cities or jobs to attend the programme. Additionally, since the course curriculum is designed keeping in mind the needs, expertise and skills of the professionals there is focused and optimal learning from premier institutes and its faculty, giving students a career edge.
