I welcome you to GITAM Centre for Distance Learning that offers

learner-centered, open, flexible, affordable and quality education

through a wide range of programmes.

Distance education is now considered to be an integral part of

achieving access and inclusive growth of higher education. This calls

for quality education to reach the hitherto unreached. We therefore

need a system of education which is independent of time, place

and pace to suit the needs of aspirants.

I am immensely pleased to note that GITAM Centre for Distance

Learning is fulfilling this need by offering several useful programmes

in the disciplines of management, science and humanities. The

learners are free to choose a progrmme suitable to their requirement

and accentualize their potential for a fruitful and rewarding career.

An important additional feature of this Centre is online learning in

select programmes being introduced this year to facilitate interactive

learning among learners, thus enhancing access and flexibility.

I earnestly hope that a large number of learners will be benefited

from the distance learning programmes offered by GITAM Centre

for Distance Learning.
