With the tremendous growth of the retail sector, retail management has emerged as one of the fastest-growing careers in India. B.Voc. Retail Management is a three-year undergraduate vocational/skill-based course (divided into 6-semesters) recognised at par with other bachelor-level degrees. The course differs from conventional academic programs since it emphasises practical study rather than just theoretical knowledge.
This program includes extensive training and hands-on experience through industry visits and internships. It is specially curated for the benefit of students who wish to enrich their skills and want to go for a job immediately after completing their studies.
Candidates enrolled in this program shall be entitled to Kaushal Vikas Bhatta (Rs. 1000 per month) as per State Govt. Policy for two years. *(conditions apply)
Multiple Entry and Exit Options: One thing that stands out is the flexibility that the course offers. The candidates can pursue the course for 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years and still work away with one form of certification or another. Candidates who have dropped off after 6 months are offered certificates, and those who have completed 1 year are offered a Diploma. Candidates who have completed 2 and 3 years respectively are offered Advanced Diploma and Undergraduate Degree.
