At a time when schools have started to resume in-person classes, two educationists and a student from the city have applied for a patent for the Hybrid Learning Education Model (HLEM) prepared by them. The model will enable students from across the globe to have access to quality education even without being physically present in the institution. The trio has filed for patent with the US Patent Application and also registered for copyright in India.

Francis Joseph, president of SLN Global Network; Husien Dohadwalla, CEO at Crimson Education Management Services and Reuben Francis, a student, have prepared this model, which will revolve around the novel concepts of ‘home campus’ and ‘parent campus’ of educational institutions. It will be a network of schools across the globe where students will have access to the best of education without being physically present in the parent institution.
