George Kuruvilla, Director, Prasar Bharti
Being from the public sector I was very excited about joining the program since there is an enhanced focus in government organizations on becoming self-sustainable and generating revenue. The Senior Management Program offered by IIM Calcutta at NIIT Imperia has definitely helped me in this aspect to a great extent.
I am now able to understand how the corporate world operates, how financing is done, what are profit and loss statements, how the stock market works and other aspects. And this is even as I am currently doing the program.
I did ample research before opting for this program. In the course of my research I realized that there was no other program which had a class profile which was similar to mine.
I found the senior management program to be the most appropriate program as far as I am concerned. The level of teaching is of a very high standard. The program starts with basics and the standards grow as you go deeper in to the modules. Additionally you get to carry an IIM tag on your papers.

Dr Arani Chatterjee, Vice President – Clinical Research, Panacea Biotech
I am basically a medical graduate by training, and work in a pharma company heading the department of clinical research. This seems totally remote from management. But there is a link which is not so obvious. At the senior level, one has to take decisions on what needs to be done. Although the activity is technical, the decision is driven ultimately by a business need. I always wanted to understand business and I knew this was an opportunity which would give me a chance to do that.
The Post Graduate Certificate Program in Management offered by IIM Indore at NIIT Imperia is of a broader nature which covers all the basic modules in management and suited my requirements. The reason why I chose this program inspite of being eligible for the senior program was to get the business fundamentals right.
The faculty and teaching methodology were excellent. The case studies are of the highest standard, as they are taken from Harvard Business Review and other reputed journals or are cases published by the Professors themselves elsewhere or have been prepared especially for this course. Additionally, after completing the program one gets a certificate from the IIMs without taking a break from work.

Taru Agarwal, Partner, Knowiz Solutions
I am basically an entrepreneur. And during the course of my work I realized I needed management education but it was just impossible for me to go to a campus, take time off and study. So when I came across the Senior Management Program offered by IIM Calcutta at NIIT Imperia, it seemed like the perfect thing to do as the classes were held on weekends and the course content was very good.
The course content was very relevant to my business since being an entrepreneur I have to look into the financial aspects as well as strategic planning, accounts, operations among several other things.
I was slightly apprehensive before joining about whether I will be able to study and take exams. But it just so happens that when you study with other students, you realize you are in the same boat and you get the strength to do it.
The class, professors and NIIT team were very helpful. There is the facility to take the make up exams and you can come back for the recorded video sessions in case you are not able to attend the class. We, because our extensive work timings, cannot always do justice to the course but these flexibilities allow you to do the course at your own pace and time.

Jitesh Kumar Chawda
Before joining the sales and marketing program I was working as Manager – Sales with an FMCG company but I always wanted to join the BFSI sector. I had my own apprehensions about my existing skillsets whether they will match with the work environment and requirements of the BFSI sector.
Around that time I came across the Post Graduate Certificate Program in Sales & Marketing by IIM Indore offered at NIIT Imperia. The curriculum was great and I felt it would provide me with a theoretical base to my sixteen years of experience in FMCG.
The knowledge gained combined with IIM certification soon paid off for me and I gained an entry into the BFSI sector. I soon got an excellent offer from HDFC Standard Life Insurance. Today I handle a branch with 12 sales managers and a multicrore business and my compensation has grown manifolds. Video Testimonial

Poorna Chandra Rao
Earlier I was not sure whether I was doing my work efficiently. I thought I was spending too much time on tasks as I used to slog for 14-16 hours a day for office work and even on weekends. That is when I decided to take up the Post Graduate Certificate Program in Management by IIM Indore at NIIT Imperia.
The difference in how I approached my work was perceivable even as I was midway through the program. I became more confident of performing my duties and responsibilities and day to day tasks were taking less time now. In other words, my overall efficiency and productivity at work has increased. I am also able to spend some quality time with my family and friends.
Overall, the course made my current job simpler to do and prepared me for taking more responsible management positions.
