Open to undergraduates, graduates and even professionals, the certificate programme will enable one to be absorbed in all research based, data analysis and marketing research industries like BPO, knowledge process outsourcing (KPO) and so on.
Anamika Paul, admission coordinator of the institute, said: “The programme is structured to develop analytical skills and enhance capability of assessing various data and interpret the results which can thus be used to develop strategies and marketing strategy.”
Stressing that the approach will be practical based and non-technical, Paul said that classes will be conducted through video conferencing.

After completion of the one-year course, MICA will provide placements for the students.
“There will be 50 centres for these courses in the country – ranging from the metros like Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai to Patna, Bokaro and Bhubaneshwar. In the UAE, there will be two centres in Sharjah and Dubai each,” she added.
