Advisory Board
The Expert Advisory Board (EAB) reviews our curriculum, validates course structure, and provides expert recommendations
What Is the Expert Advisory Board?
Much like how respected global training bodies ensure quality, ViLabs Academy will maintain an Expert Advisory Board (EAB) comprising experienced educators, industry professionals, and experts in technology, governance, privacy, business, and subject-matter experts who guide the quality, relevance, and direction of our training programs. These members come from global organizations and ensure that every course reflects real industry needs and modern skill expectations.
The Expert Advisory Board (EAB) reviews our curriculum, validates course structure, and provides expert recommendations so learners receive training that is aligned with current market trends, professional standards, and employer requirements worldwide.
How This Benefits Learners
Learners study programs shaped and reviewed by senior professionals who understand what global companies look for—ensuring strong employability and practical skill development.
The board ensures every course stays relevant to the latest technologies, tools, and digital trends, so students learn what is in demand right now.
Advisory members bring hands-on experience from multinational companies. Their guidance helps us integrate real scenarios, case studies, and best practices into the learning experience.
Being mentored by an academy with a professional advisory board gives learners strong credibility when applying for jobs, internships, or further education.
Through the board’s mentorship and industry exposure, learners get clearer career direction, better preparation for certifications, and improved readiness for workplace challenges.
