Why Beyond Academics

What Makes This Programme Different

Anyone can teach theory. We teach you how to actually do the job.

🎤
Performance-Based Learning
You can't develop public speaking skills by watching someone else speak. Every session involves live performance practice — speeches, role plays, mock interviews and presentations — with real-time feedback from Renu.
📹
Video Recording & Feedback
Selected sessions are recorded so you can see exactly how you come across — posture, eye contact, voice, presence. Seeing yourself is the most powerful feedback tool there is.
🌱
Holistic Personality Transformation
This isn't just a public speaking course. It's a complete personality development programme — confidence, body language, interviews, leadership and personal brand — the full package.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before you enrol. Still have questions? Just WhatsApp us.

Not necessarily. This programme is designed for both beginners and those with some background. We start with foundations and build up progressively. Many of our most successful Public Speaking / Soft Skills students had no prior experience when they joined.
We offer both online and offline modes. Offline classes are at our Bangalore centre. Online sessions are conducted live — not recorded videos — so you get the same interactive, hands-on experience from wherever you are.
The programme runs for 8 to 12 weeks depending on batch type (weekday or weekend). Weekend batches tend to run slightly longer. The exact timeline is confirmed when you speak with our counsellor.
New batches start every month. We offer weekday batches (morning/evening slots) and weekend batches (Saturday/Sunday). WhatsApp or call us to know the upcoming batch date and available timings.
We believe fees should never be a barrier to career growth. Please speak with us directly to discuss the fee structure. You can reach us on WhatsApp at +91 93800 58544 or call us anytime.
Yes — and it's personal, not just a job portal link. We review your resume, prepare you for interviews, and connect you with job leads from our network. Renu personally supports students through their placement journey.
Yes. You receive a certificate from Beyond Academics, an ISO 9001:2015 certified training institute. This can be added to your resume and LinkedIn profile as evidence of professional, structured training.
Yes. We deliberately keep batches small so every student gets personal attention. Renu knows every student by name, tracks their progress, and is available for doubt-clearing beyond class hours.
Yes — and this is exactly who the programme is designed for. Stage fright is fear of judgment, and the first three modules of this programme address the root cause directly. Renu has helped hundreds of students transform from genuinely terrified speakers to confident presenters. The classroom is a safe space to practise and fail forward.
Absolutely. The programme covers a broad range — from foundational confidence to advanced leadership presence and personal branding. Stronger speakers typically focus on Stage Presence, Leadership Communication and Personal Branding modules to add another dimension to their communication.
