Distance Education vs Regular Scheme

Main focus in distance education is on methods of teaching. Online teaching through modern technology aims at delivering knowledge. In regular classes there is an eye to eye contact between a student and a teacher. In distance learning there is no physical presence of a student in a class set up. Students receive information through prepared material.

Distance Education has given rise to many “mega-universities” which cater to educational needs of more than 100,000 students at the same time.

BBA through distance education

Computers and Internet have made it easier for students of Bachelor of Business Administration to receive further knowledge in their field of work while working at the same time. “Virtual Universities” impart total education through modern technology gadgets like computers. Many Universities have been given Open University recognition by University Grants Commission of India. Punjab Technical University, Karnataka State Open University and Maharishi Dayanand University, are few Universities which fall under this category.

In asynchronous learning, Students of BBA access the given material at their own convenient time. This flexibility in learning at convenience is attractive to those who are otherwise engaged elsewhere, i.e. in some profession or the other etc. Personal commitments and other responsibilities are taken care of while a student keeps his study schedule.

Lifelong Learning

New businesses are coming up every day. A person is required to tap the market continuously for latest developments of the market both at the national and international levels. Lifelong learning is gladly accepted by people who want to stay in touch with the most recent developments in field of technology. Rapid changes and new developments when known help in financial development of Businesses of the world.

Regular studies are bound by age barrier. But in distance education there is no rule regarding this.

Though Universities have set up study centers all over the country, still this does away with the need of constructing buildings and incurring undue expenses.

Students of BBA

Students of BBA enroll with Distance Education (DEC) recognized Universities and get degrees which help them in getting highly paid jobs in government, public and private sectors. Due to limitation of available seats in regular courses, open universities have opened up a doorway to obtain knowledge otherwise.

A student of BBA comes out into the world after the completion of the course with full knowledge in management, accounting, technology and marketing etc. Students have advantage over others in business because they hold better organizational skills. Their knowledge about management concepts is complete. As their decision-making skills are enhanced through the course, they help in enlarging the management and in handling the same in fully effective manner.

Specialization in various fields can be acquired during the course. While some might be interested in the marketing side of a business, yet there are still others who wish to become specialists in information system and its strategies.

Many short term courses are available after BBA. These courses enhance prospects of getting a relevant job.
