Participant Reviews
Ruchi Kandpal
The teaching methodology is incredible. I like how a topic is explained first and then its subsections are explained in details with examples for further clarifications and clarity. Small important points are mentioned on the screen after explaining them. It makes the video lectures very engaging and worth attending to.

OVERVIEW:
The overall program is a great initiative by SIBM Pune and I feel the institute should continue the momentum by designing such courses under Management Development Programs. As I am completely new to this field of study, I had a great time understanding the basics of marketing.The course also helped me pick my MAJORS during my MBA program, seeing the growing demand and unconventional possibilities Marketing Analysts experience in the industry. Looking forward to similar courses designed by the Marketers for the Marketers. Cheers !
DISCUSSION FORUM:
Coming to Discussion Forum, I feel that we should know, what could be the most relevant answers to fetch a 2.5/2.5 in the discussion forum. We, as prospective candidates to implement the learning, should know the points that we are missing out on and adding which points would complement our answers. No doubt, we can get to view answers of fellow participants but, in that way we won't get to know the effectiveness of an answer as per the answer required. It would be great if the respective faculty post the appropriate explanation highlighting the keywords they seek for.
CONTENT:
The content was no doubt good but I feel there is still room for some more illustrative examples when it comes to explaining Dendograms, Scree Plots etc. in the topic (Perception Mapping and Cluster Analysis). Thank You ! It was a great time learning from SIBM Marketing faculty.Pramod Chandra M V
Great lessons & quizzes. Discussion forum can be better handled
