I got to know about the NUJS diploma in Entrepreneurship Administration and Business Laws from a friend of mine. When I looked up the internet I liked the course structure and thought it would be a very good idea for me to enroll for this course.

At the time of joining the course my companies had started off and I was already a part of it. Since I handle two companies in two diverse domains and I am from a science background without much knowledge of the law. I felt it would be a good idea for me to take up this course.

This course provided an overview of all the related laws, knowledge of business law and basic compliance was very beneficial for me. My expectations from the course were totally fulfilled.

In both my companies, we participate in projects through tenders. A lot of compliance and documentation has to be followed while applying or bidding for tenders. The knowledge gained through this course helps in ensuring that the documentation and compliance are in place.

This particular course is more about knowledge rather than any particular skill. How to set up a company, how to wind up a company, different procedures and compliances which need to be followed, all this is knowledge. As leaders, you have to follow certain compliances and take care of your employees as well. You might not be able to do it right away when you start up but you have it at the back of your mind that you need to do it in next six months or one year. The knowledge gained through this course helps you create that vision for your company.

Personally, I found the module on Mergers and Acquisitions to be most informative and beneficial.

The future plan is to grow my companies and take them forward. This course would certainly help me in my future vision. This course helps you understand things like how to raise funds for your company, what all things to take care of to ensure your interest is taken care of even after getting funding or equity for your company.

I would be more than happy to recommend this course to another person. I would personally recommend it to budding entrepreneurs; as the majority of startups we have these days are tech startups and these people are mainly from science background. They have very little knowledge about business law, compliance, etc. They can benefit immensely from this course. Even businessmen who have little knowledge about law or who want to gain some knowledge about business law can benefit from this course.
