I am doing a distance learning course of hospital administration for 1 year in Medvarsity Online Ltd. The course is on Hospital Administration. It is a post graduate diploma in Hospital Administration. The course fee is Rs. 25000. The fee has been paid in advance with no installments. I took up a distance learning course as I was working at Infovision Software Pvt. Ltd. I worked in that company for 2 years. It was difficult to balance job and work. In Infovision Software, I used to go to my Tollygunge Office in Kolkata. Later the office was shifted to Gariahat in Kolkata. The new office was nice. The work pressure like any other private firm was quite and I could not manage the work pressure and the pressure of my hospital management. I kept it secret for the past 9 months. In the last 3 months, I joined a small company in Picnic Garden in Kolkata. I worked there for 2-1/2 months.

In my distance learning course, the study materials with course CDs were sent. The course has been divided into 4 parts i.e. 3 months each. After the first 3 months, an exam was held online and then again after three months another exam was held. There were 2 books. The first book was for 6 months and the second book was for 6 months. The books were neatly printed with the picture of Apollo Hospitals, Hyderabad on the cover. The books were nicely written with the topics on general administration on the first 3 months. Then comes hospital administration as one goes on learning further in the later 2 units. After each unit, an online exam is held and within 15 days, a candidate is allowed to give the online test. The results obviously is shown instantaneously and your stand in the students taking the online test.
