Core Program Conclave 2023

Theme: MERGE – Discover, Design, Deliver

Core Programs ki nayi paribhasha ka safar

Core Program Mission: Design and Deliver leading edge quality programs to 30,000 learners annually by
next 5 years with campus knowledge partners and an exemplary team while maintaining funding
sources, long-term outcomes and impact.

Why the theme?

The building of the “new” of Core Programs is anchored through the QDG neural engine with three
strategy pillars:

1. Quality - Strategy, Programs, Delivery, Partnerships and Innovation

2. Depth in Stakeholder relationships- Students, SRMs, Campuses, Employers, Funders, Innovation
Partners
3. Organic Growth in Impact with the above stakeholders – Demo model that is replicable &
scalable to reach 1M students

What this means for the Core Program Collective:

1. Building a collective understanding of Strategy, Design and Delivery

2. Creating spaces for collaborative dialogues for our people & functions
3. Developing a uniform approach to creating programs, innovations & upskilling the stakeholders
4. Synergizing the core program functions through a common purpose for strong stakeholder
partnerships
5. Streamlining internal and external communications/pitch/messaging
