But then there are some other opinions that need to be said about UpGrad, they are actually doing these programs themself and right there is the biggest problem in the advertising they deeploy.
There is a good reason why the UGC India (university grants commission) is sending out public notices about the edtech platforms in India doing dubious things; notice from 16.01.2022 https://imgur.com/a/yLmTQCJ
And why UGC India stays away from UpGrad and probably has them blacklisted. Hence ugc is doing there own thing with abroad programs in India.
Read past the heavy marketing and the venture capitalist money, and read about the reviews from people about the program quality.
I can only tell you how it ended up with the SSBM Geneva partnership with UpGrad. UpGrad enlisted over 1300 people since May in the program, while the current number of people on research gate is 368 so that means they are enlisting people,taking money while they can not even process the number. That is a big red flag and means they are chasing income margins to please the venture capitalist which at any given point will blow up especially with the recent events in India edtech space;

And if the stories are true then the disaster is going to be worse if the enlisted people find out SSBM Geneva does not offer real doctorate degrees (which i touched recently upon it) that UpGrad is promising to them;

.. so yea i would stay clear from UpGrad. Just read the 5 star reviews and you will see something does not feel right,organic.
