Hello!
Whether doing Master of planning via distance mode is beneficial or not is depends upon your graduation profile. I will suggest you to go for Master of Planning through distance education only if you have sufficient work experience in this field. Dear, if you have done your Bachelors (in Planning) through regular mode and after passing your graduation if you do have good number of years for work experience in this field. Then, you can take distance education as an option for you. Because now, you have appropriate knowledge of this field. But if you are lacking in any one of the conditions, don't go for correspondence. Regular mode is the only option for you. I hope this helps.
Good Luck.

The job prospects for public relations and corporate communication are high as there are very less people skilled and made for smart PR and corporate communication. I shall suggest taking a job in case you are getting a good one. If you have strong interest in pursuing higher education in this field then education is always the best option. You should go ahead pursuing higher education from a good place where the two streams get stronger and when you complete the next course, you must be an improved and strong candidate for a job.
Jobs will always be there in these fields and a specialisation in these will lead you good companies and work. .

Hi,
Does lovely weather or delicious treats make your fingers itch to click a snap? Then like many others you are a budding photographer in the making. Most famous photographers start off by taking photographs at a family celebration or capturing the scenic beauty of a vacation. Thus, for most people in this field, photography first starts as a hobby which later on becomes a passion, so strong that one cannot think of joining any other profession irrespective of the pay scale/package they are being offered.
Earlier, one had to learn the nuances of photography on job or maybe by working as a helper with bigger photographers. However, now one can easily secure the necessary skills at good colleges. Some of the best colleges offering photography courses are mentioned on the link offered below:

No. I would never recommend. Moreover, any programme like distance course in engineering or architecture is not possible too. Certifications/ Associateship Examinations may be an option. If you have come to know something like distance course, that's false and someone is cheating on you. Please, be careful before investing in such things your hard earned money. Learning off-campus or face to face doesn't matter much if you have availability of performing practical work and there are teachers as well as material to learn theoretical concepts.
IIA: https://indianinstituteofarchitects.com/ is the place where you can have associateship examination equivalent to B.Arch. I would like to tell you to check the recognition status of this examination these days. You can go for this only if you think it is still recognised. Regards.

Hello!
Landscape architecture was a great and fruitful sector but in past times. Earlier, there was very lesser concentration om the internal look of an infrastructure. What all matters is the area and location along with atmospheric /environment conditions of the area which constitutes the landscape. But now, the things have changed. People are nowhere asking to beautify the interior look of the house, building, villas and bungalow. Hence, the necessity of an interior designer is rapidly increasing with every passing year. And, this is also the reason that why this field is considered as ever increasing. In India and the western countries, the requirement is increasing. But make sure that you do this interior designing course from a globally reputed and recognised college or institution. The more your college has market value the more you will have the opportunities career ahead in your life. Hope this helps. Good luck.

There are no specific institutes which can make you AIEED ready. You will have to study on your own.
It is always best to start preparing for an exam as early as possible.
This means being alert in classes, during discussions of relevance to those papers, paying attention to details and doing something to remember and be able to recollect and reproduce details and matters and designs that have seemed important to you.
Be alert to what you are learning.
Note all the beauty around you.
Try to draw inspiration from your environment.
Check how long it takes you to answer questions or come up with ideas.
Make an effort to get quicker and better with your responses to questions.

1. Have you found out whether you are required to write much for this exam?
2. In case you are required to write, which is the language that you are expected to use?
3. How proficient are you in the language in question?
4. In case you need help with the language, how and where can you find it?
5. How much time do you need to learn or brush up your skills related to this language?
6. Do you have that time available to you, now?
7. Which is a trustworthy source from where you can gain knowledge on this language? No; these questions are not meant to be presented to alarm you. These are very practical matters that hold immense importance. For, in case you are required to write, a lot depends on how good your language is and how well you can express yourself in it.

Hello,
The scope is only formed by the candidate. Out of the given two fields, wherever your interest lies scope is there. To have more insights, you need to first understand about both of these streams:
(#) Commercial Architecture: It involves planning, design and construction management of commercial and retail facilities which require attention of functionality, flexibility and costs. These days, it becomes slightly difficult to expand the horizons of commercial architecture. Local authorities commonly maintain strict regulations on commercial zoning and have the authority to designate any zoned area as such. A business must be located in a commercial area, or area zoned at least partially for commerce.
(#) Urban Planning: This leads you to more sophisticated path. Jobs where your degree would be useful include: civil service administrator, community development worker, environmental manager, landscape architecture, planning and development surveys, and (or) sustainability consultant.

Wildlife photography: Wildlife photography is a genre of photography concerned with documenting various forms of wildlife in their natural habitat.

-You must be physically fit because you could be spending long periods in very cold, hot or wet conditions waiting for the right shot.
-Digital photography has made it easier for people to pick this UPAT least as a hobby at a relatively low cost.
Skills Required: Extreme amounts of patience, presence of mind, strong communication skills, deep respect for nature in all its forms, a naturalist's sensitivity and ability to blend in and maintain silence.

Taking beautiful photos and capturing those memories isn't as hard as you think. It doesnt require expensive equipment, fancy studios, or high-tech editing software. All you need is dedication and some simple concepts to really improve your photography. You can get as deep as you want, but even mastering the basics will improve your photography by leaps and bounds.
Everyone I talk to loves taking photos. We live in a photo-obsessed culture. How many times in a day do you take pictures with your phone? And how many times do you think I wish my pictures were better?
If you've thought you always needed a big expensive camera, then trust me when I say any camera can take good photos if you can take good photos.
Tip from a pro: Instead of trying to work with a large media organisation like a magazine or newspaper, become a small media icon yourself.
If you have a large and influential presence on social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, you might be more appealing to these organizations than old school media. So, start a blog, gain followers, and who knows, you could be their next photographer.
You can look at this link for a list of photography college sin Delhi NCR. There's generally no specific course for travel photography, all the basic of photography are taught in a generalised photography course.
