An online certificate program in English speaking will launch at Delhi University

An online certificate course in English speaking will soon be offered by the Delhi University at its Campus of Open Learning (COL). The organization will provide the English-speaking certificate course online in association with Cambridge Institution Press. Candidates will be leveled and assessed on their mastery of the English language before to admission. Candidates from any location in India may enroll in this online course.

A joint certificate from Cambridge and the DU Campus of Open Learning (COL) will be awarded to applicants who successfully complete the certificate course. The name of this course, according to Amar Ujala, would be “Easy Communication in English,” and the application process would likely start in September 2023.

According to Amar Ujala, the government has now fixed the cost at between Rs 1000 and Rs 1200 depending on the level. The course will include two or three levels. The administration claims that since this is such a little expense, no student will be put at a financial disadvantage. A three-month training program is not that inexpensive. For English language instruction at other colleges, there are expensive fees.

This course’s curriculum was developed in conjunction with Cambridge University Press. This course is now being created for Indian students after originally being designed for students from other countries. Although the course will start out totally online, it could start out offline in the future.

Soon, a contract will be inked with Cambridge University Press. Many students comprehend English but are reluctant to talk, which affects their confidence, according to Prof. Payal Mago, Director of the Campus of Open Learning, Department of Distance and Continuing Education, DU. This environment is being used to provide this course. Applications for this course will likely start to be accepted in September, thus preparations are now being made. Candidates are not needed to physically attend the class for this course.

DETERMINATION OF ADMISSION VIA A SCREENING TEST

Based on the outcomes of an online screening exam, students will be accepted into online English-speaking certificate courses. Based on the results of the tests, the student’s level will be established. The school will shortly provide the entire description and timetable for the course.
