Frequently asked questions

Know what you’re saying yes to.

A useful course question deserves a straight answer. Start here, then request the details that apply to the batch you are considering.

Which learning path should I start with?

Choose Graphic Design if you want to create visual identities and layouts; Video Editing if you want to tell stories with footage; or AI Prompting if you want to improve research, ideas and repeatable workflows. Choose AI Career Launchpad for a broader project that connects research, documents, data checks and workflow automation. If your goal spans more than one path, compare the example work before choosing.

Can I start as a beginner?

These learning paths start with fundamentals. The right fit also depends on your device, available practice time and the current batch syllabus. Confirm prerequisites with the team before enrolling.

What are the fees and next batch dates?

Ask Upnova Institute for the current total fee, duration, class timings, batch start date, software costs and payment terms. Confirm these details in writing before paying.

Is an internship included with every course?

Internship availability, selection, duration, workload and any stipend must be confirmed separately. Ask which projects you would work on and what supervision and documentation are provided.

Will I get a job or freelance clients?

A course cannot guarantee a job, salary or freelance income. Your practice, portfolio, previous experience and the opportunities you pursue all affect the outcome.

Can I learn online from Kolkata or elsewhere in West Bengal?

You can enquire about Upnova’s online learning paths from Kolkata, West Bengal or elsewhere in India. Confirm the current session timings, teaching language, recording access and any attendance requirements for your batch.

Can I join after Class 12 or while studying another subject?

Ask for the entry requirements of the specific path. Your interest, device, practice time and the work you want to make are useful starting points. Try one of the beginner briefs in our learning guides before choosing.

What is the difference between graphic design and video editing?

Graphic design mainly organises a message through type, images, colour and layout. Video editing shapes a message over time through footage, sound and sequence. They overlap when a campaign needs both graphics and video.

How long does a course take, and how much does it cost?

The current duration and total cost are confirmed in your written batch information. Ask for session hours, expected practice, taxes, software licences, subscriptions and any separate assessment charges. This website does not quote an unverified price or collect course payments.

Will classes be recorded, and which language will be used?

Ask about the language used by your batch, whether live sessions are recorded, how long recordings are available and how missed classes are handled. Make sure the arrangement fits your schedule before enrolling.

What laptop or software do I need?

Requirements depend on the editor, design application, version and project files. Share your current device specifications with the team and check the software maker’s requirements. Confirm who supplies any paid licences or subscriptions.

How can I assess the teaching and feedback?

Ask who teaches your batch, see relevant work the team has permission to share and ask how projects are reviewed. A useful example explains the brief, the learner’s contribution and the changes made after feedback.

What should I check about certificates and refunds?

Request the certificate issuer and completion criteria, plus the current written cancellation and refund policy. The enrolment checklist explains what to ask; it does not replace your course agreement.

Keep the important details together.

Use the checklist to request a written syllabus, total cost, timetable, support arrangements and enrolment conditions.
