Online Distance Learning Program

Our fast paced world has changed the nature of education and training today. It's no longer feasible to expect learning to always take place in person — that's a luxury few can manage.

At Shruti Institute, we feel strongly that learning should happen on your schedule & timeframe. There's no limits to learning, so you get to decide when you are ready to study (and our library is never closed).

That's why all our programs are available in their entirety online via our Distance Learning Programs. That's all day, every day of the year — 24X7.

How it Works

All course sessions are digitally recorded and uploaded to online communities dedicated for each program/course with notes, slides or other related documents
Students sign-up online for programs/courses and receive controlled access to the online community for that program/course
Distance Learning Program Students access their online community to listen to class recordings and read notes and other documents provided for that course/program at their leisure - according to their needs
Students hold discussions and interact with other students or instructors of the program/course in online discussion groups using included group email services within each community
Online communities are available and accessible all day, every day (24-hrs/day, 365 days/yr)

*Payment plans are available for most programs.

Live Teleclass Program

It's not always possible to travel to every location that would like to participate in our programs. However, we try to meet the needs of every budget and location that wants to have us by leveraging technology.

We save travel and other related expenses from impacting your budgets by using live teleclasses to deliver our highly sought after courses in the comfort of your own homes, studios or other locations.

These programs use teleconferencing systems to bridge together students from all parts of the world to participate in live classes.

How it Works

Clients pre-arrange teleconference sessions with Shruti Institute for their required dates and times. We handle all sign-up and notification arrangements and email all participants of course dates and times for the Live Teleclass
Participants call into special Teleconference dial-in numbers at the pre-arranged dates and times, and enter their unique Conference Code to access their live course sessions
Teleconferencing systems allow control for lively interactive discussions between students and instructors, or as presentations for one-to-many participants where listeners handsets are muted during the sessions
Questions and answers can be handled interactively throughout sessions or held until the end of each session
Sessions can be also be recorded for later use as Podcasts or to distribute to teleclass participants or for those unable to attend the live session following the teleclass
