What our students say

The Child Psychology program was really very knowledgeable. It helped me gain insight!! Initially, I was under the impression that it is super easy to work with children, but the techniques shared in the program needs professional practice. In general, the program was very interactive and thus it was activity/assignment based, we were actually able to apply the teachings. I enjoyed every session, each speaker was mastered in their area of topic and were always ready to solve our doubts. Thank you so much "Insighte" for such a great program.
