Testimonials

The desire of study does not fade away with age. Neither does it when an individual does not know the proper pathway to be involved in. Most of us after completion of high school or Bachelor’s degree want to get involved in jobs and have certain years of experience, and as well study further at the same time. When this situation occurs, we are in dilemma as whether to study or to work. However, this kind of dilemma can now be solved by choosing the best of option by enrolling into ICA. ICA is the institution where one can work and study simultan eously and is very suitable for the job holder/working professional like me.

Exceptional Learning Experience at IGNOU at ICA Study Center: A Top Choice for degrees through the Open Distance Learning mode. I recently had the privilege of completing my bachelor’s degree in the tourism at the ICA Study Center, and I cannot emphasize enough the positive impact this institution had on my educational journey.

In today’s competitive market having a bachelor’s degree is as crucial as having a work experience. At ICA, I have had the chance to both study and work which has made me competitive student and an employee. At first, I was worried how do I manage my studies and a full time job but then the frequent important date reminders given by ICA and the counseling session given by my program coordinator made my life much easier.

Attending IGNOU has been an incredibly rewarding experience for me. The flexibility of the distance learning format has allowed me to balance my studies with my other commitments, while the qualities of the course materials and the support from the faculty have been excellent. I have been able to develop a deep understanding of the subject matter and acquire valuable knowledge and skills that I can apply in my personal and professional life. One of the greatest advantages of IGNOU's program is the opportunity to learn at my own pace and on my own schedule. This has been particularly important for me, as I have been able to continue my education while working full-time and fulfilling other responsibilities. The online resources and the option to attend virtual classes have also been extremely helpful in keeping me engaged and motivated throughout my studies.

Sociology, (M.A)

Age is just a number, and thanks to the Indian Academy's collaboration with IGNOU, I have been able to prove this adage true. For years, I dreamed of earning a Bachelor of Computer Application but felt constrained by the belief that my age might be a barrier. However, the Indian Academy opened doors I once thought were closed, allowing me to not only pursue my undergraduate degree but also continue my higher studies on the same campus.

Bachelor of Computer Application

As an Ethiopian student pursuing my Master's in Social Work (MSW) through IGNOU's innovative distance learning program, I have acquired invaluable knowledge and skills necessary for a fulfilling social work career. The program's structure, with its strategic blend of coursework and practical fieldwork, provided a unique advantage. By integrating concurrent visits with real-world fieldwork, IGNOU offered a glimpse into the inner workings of Ethiopian Civil Society Organizations (CSOs). Witnessing firsthand the impactful role social workers play in transforming communities solidified my passion for this field.
