AND Academy's approach to education is very progressive with tasks, assignments and projects that help reinforce learning within 24 hours of imparting concepts and knowledge. The intensive and fast-paced curriculum allows for faster exploration of ideas and concepts while also teaching students to be quick on their feet with creative decisions. Self-study material is also very well structured and organised, and encourages self-improvment and keeping up with latest design trends.
It was a very good experience throughout the course of Interior Design at AND Academy. I just loved the mentoring sessions. I would surely recommend to my friends, relatives and colleagues too.

They didn’t just teach design; they helped me understand my strengths, my creative identity, and my potential.AND Academy’s hands-on, real-world learning approach gave me the confidence to present ideas, manage projects, and develop essential entrepreneurial and leadership skills.
