The classroom instruction is the primary vehicle of learning. It gives strong theoretical and conceptual inputs.

The present developments in each of the specific areas are discussed, using articles from reputed, national and international journals.
- At GECJ, we strongly emphasize project work which involves extensive and in depth study of a specific topic involving research or field work.
- Teaching language (English) : English language learning( ESL) and Periodic presentations, quizzes by individuals and groups are conducted. This also helps in enhancing communication skills.

- Case method is extensively used for the student to experience the simulated environment of the corporate world and for developing decision making skills. The cases are carefully selected to be contemporaneous and illustrating the use of relevant principles and tools in a complex setting.
- Off-campus workshops, Seminars - GECJ holds off campus workshops and seminars on current topics on a regular basis.
- There is a strong belief that at the Institute in ‘learning by doing’ and that a true management education goes beyond the classroom. The students are therefore exposed to ‘Non – Management’ programmes like yoga, music appreciation, literature appreciation, etc; and are encouraged to participate in all co – curricular activities.
This model places the student in the centre of teaching and learning to best respond to the demands of his personal and professional development project and the demands from companies, industries and communities
Evaluation System
The Institute believes in the continuous evaluation of every student, as a measure of performance and also as a means for motivation. Evaluation is done through assignments, case studies, periodic quizzes, projects, and two examinations - a mid semester and an end semester exam. This contributes to continuous learning helps in fine tune the concepts already learnt.
