    College Vidya launches online education day

    MUMBAI: Talk about a smart move, India just got its own Online Education Day! In a first-of-its-kind initiative, College Vidya has declared October 25 as Online Education Day, turning its foundation day into a nationwide celebration of digital learning, inclusion, and innovation.

    The idea? To honour the millions of learners, educators, and universities driving India’s online learning revolution, and to spotlight how technology has made higher education more accessible than ever. The Noida-based platform hopes the initiative will grow into an annual, sector-wide observance, with future recognition from national education bodies like UGC and AICTE.

    For its debut edition, College Vidya invited online universities across India to join in with student stories, video messages, and scholarship collaborations, all echoing a shared vision of credible, learner-centric digital education.

    “Online education has become the great equaliser, opening doors for millions who once stood outside the classroom,” said College Vidya founder and COO Rohit Gupta. “If electricity and the internet can reach every pincode, so should quality education. This day celebrates that belief.”

    Beyond the celebrations, the platform continues to walk the talk, having disbursed Rs 4.7 crore in financial aid so far and recently announcing 50 per cent subsidies for transgender learners, making higher education truly inclusive.

    With its lively ‘Learner Stories’ campaign and a symbolic cake-cutting spree across the country, College Vidya’s Online Education Day wasn’t just a nod to the digital age, it was a heartfelt reminder that learning has no limits when powered by connection, compassion, and a good Wi-Fi signal.

     

  • College Vidya Bets on Education with ‘My Learning Circle’ Campaign

    College Vidya Bets on Education with ‘My Learning Circle’ Campaign

    MUMBAI: In a bold play to counter the growing trend of online betting and fantasy gaming among young Indians, College Vidya has rolled out a new awareness campaign that’s all about raising the stakes on education. My Learning Circle isn’t just another buzzword, it’s a cultural call to action aimed at teaching young minds to bet on the future, not the odds.

    With betting apps increasingly capturing the attention of youth, especially during the IPL season, College Vidya’s campaign dives deep into the often tragic consequences of compulsive gambling. Through a gripping series of five real-life stories, it sheds light on individuals who’ve faced immense financial, emotional, and even life-threatening losses due to online betting. It’s not all doom and gloom, though. The campaign’s goal? To swap those tragic tales for stories of empowerment, education, and responsible choices.

    “The aim is not just to create awareness but to build a positive movement toward informed choices and lifelong learning,” said College Vidya COO Rohit Gupta. “We’re using relatable storytelling, community participation, and rewards to drive home the message.”

    The stakes are high. With India witnessing an uptick in youth falling prey to the lure of quick wins, this campaign aims to redirect their focus from fleeting gambling profits to lasting knowledge and skills.

    As the betting world grows ever more enticing, My Learning Circle is a timely intervention. It’s a reminder that true winnings come from the power of education, not the gamble of chance.
