  1. How to deal with issues before or during the program? : After 10-day cooling-off window closes or anytime during the program, you might run into some issues like the ones below. 
    1. Not able to attend classes due to medical reasons including suffering from illness
    2. Not able to attend classes as traveling abroad in a different timezone
    3. Not being able to grasp content due to unpreparedness for that cohort
    4. Not able to dedicate time to program due to professional workload

To help you deal with these issues, you have an option to pause the program for a certain time and restart the program with another batch. This option is called “Batch Transfer” option.

  1. Pause My Program
  1. We strongly recommend completing the program at one go.
  2. However we understand that at times it may be difficult to pursue the course in a single stretch. Hence, try to pause for a minimal duration to avoid forgetting topics learned so far.
  3. A student is entitled to pause a maximum of 6 months overall, taking all pauses into account. Post this you will have to re-enroll as a fresh candidate. This ensures that the learning of student is continuous and avoids dragging forever issues.
