As part of this partnership ISFB students will visit the IIMV campus for short, focused learning sessions. Undergraduate students will attend a five-day program where they will learn key management concepts directly from IIMV professors. Postgraduate students will take part in a three day on-campus program and those who complete it will receive executive alumni status from IIMV.

These programs aim to give students early exposure to the teaching style, learning environment and academic culture of an IIM. Joy Parekh who is the CEO of ISFB said that this collaboration shows their commitment to giving students access to high-quality academic experiences and preparing them better for real-world careers.

Vijaya Bhaskar Marisetty the dean of academics at IIMV said that the institute wants to make quality management education more accessible and help shape future leaders. This is also the first time IIMV is opening such a learning opportunity to undergraduate students.

ISFB has been launched lately by Imarticus Learning to increase the quality of finance and business education in India. Through this partnership ISFB students will join specially designed bootcamps at IIMV featuring expert-led classes, case-based learning and exposure to modern management ideas. This experience is expected to boost students’ confidence, widen their understanding and strengthen their career readiness.
