Course format
The course is conducted in English. Your command of English should be sufficient for you to study Srila Prabhupada’s books, and be favorably assessed. This course is divided into five modules namely: Bhagavad-gita (Chapters 1-6), Bhagavad-gita (Chapters 7-12), Bhagavad-gita (Chapters 13-18), Nectar of Devotion, Sri Isopanisad and Nectar of Instruction. These form the study content for the course. The registered students will be provided with the detailed schedule of the online course. The course code is BS and should be quoted in all correspondence.
Tests and certification
Assessments are accomplished through tests on slokas, closed book, essays and class attendance for every module as part of the standard assessment prescribed by the ISKCON Board for Examination. One has to pass all the assessments in the module to pass the module. A pass in each module is required for an overall course pass. And that will result in the student receiving a certificate of successful completion issued by the Mayapur Institute.
Course duration and method of study
For Online, the student will be assigned reading assignment before every class and one should complete the reading assignment assigned for the class. He/she goes through two classes weekly. Every week the teacher meets the students in a virtual class (90 minutes duration / class). The course comprising of all the five modules will be completed in 10 months.
