BIA® STUDENT CODE OF CONDUCT AND APPLICABLE TERMS & CONDITIONS

1. Fees, once paid, cannot be refunded under any circumstances.
2. The full course fee must be cleared before a batch is assigned. For one-time payments, the amount must be paid in full. For EMI options, loan approval and first disbursement must be completed before batch commencement. Students will not receive access to classes, portals, or academic resources until fee clearance.
3. Once a student selects a campus and makes any payment toward the program, the selected campus shall be considered final. Changing the campus in any form is strictly not permitted  under any circumstances. If a student wishes to enroll at a different BIA campus, they will be required to initiate a fresh admission process and pay the applicable program fees in full.
4. All students are required to maintain a minimum of 75% attendance across the academic journey. Failure to meet this requirement will result in disqualification from proceeding further for certification or internships, and from participating in any Career Enhancement Cell (CEC) activities, which includes the internship and placement assistance.
5. The field of technology evolves rapidly with the continuous emergence of new skills, tools, and techniques. To maintain academic relevance and industry alignment, BIA® reserves the right to modify, update, or revise the course curriculum at any time without prior notice.
6. Batch assignments are based on faculty availability, infrastructure, and academic needs. Students have no option to select or change the assigned batch timing, mode, or location. BIA reserves the full right to revise batch schedules, delivery mode, or location throughout the course duration.
7. The Capstone Project is a mandatory academic component and includes orientation, topic selection, project submission, live presentation, and final evaluation and approval by a BIA®-empanelled trainer. No student shall be considered eligible for internship allocation, certificate issuance, or placement assistance without successfully completing all stages of the Capstone Project in accordance with the academic timelines and quality standards defined by BIA®.
8. Students enrolled in the Diploma and Master Diploma programs are entitled to academic classroom training along with a structured internship component, comprising a 2-month internship and a 6-month On-the-Job Training (OJT), respectively. These engagements are designed to provide online, project-based industry exposure through select companies. Assigned work may include live project tasks or assignment-based deliverables, depending on the company’s operational model.
9. All internships and OJTs are unpaid, online, and form an integral part of the academic curriculum, aimed at providing practical exposure and real-world learning rather than financial compensation.
10. Companies are allotted based on their availability, interest, and project requirements at the time of batch readiness. Students cannot choose, reject, or request a change in the assigned company / project. Each company follows its own onboarding, communication, and task protocols. Students must directly coordinate with the company for all internship or OJT-related queries and deliverables.
11. The term ‘On-the-Job Training’ refers to an online, project-based engagement and should not be considered physical on-site employment. Completion of the internship or OJT, along with satisfactory performance and timely submission, is mandatory for receiving the company-issued experience letter and the corresponding Diploma or Master Diploma certificate.
12. Disclaimer on Placement Assistance:
    • BIA® provides 100% Placement Assistance to eligible students by facilitating the completion of academic training, execution of industry-aligned capstone projects, resume building, interview preparation, aptitude training, personality development, and access to job and internship opportunities through its Career Enhancement Cell (CEC). However, BIA® does not offer or imply any job guarantee, minimum salary assurance, or commitment of placement within a specific timeline.
    • The term ‘100% Placement Assistance’ refers solely to support, guidance, and facilitation, and shall not be construed as an assurance of employment. Final placement outcomes depend on several external and individual factors, including but not limited to: student performance, communication skills, project quality, industry demand, and employer selection criteria.
    • Interview scheduling is entirely dependent on the hiring company’s timelines, screening processes, and response to student applications. BIA® cannot guarantee that interviews will be scheduled for every application submitted, as the final decision rests solely with the employer. Students are responsible for actively applying to opportunities shared via CEC and fulfilling all academic and behavioral requirements to be considered for such interviews.
    • BIA® shall not be held liable or responsible in any manner for a student’s inability to secure interviews or employment despite availing placement support services. Any claims of guaranteed placement, interview scheduling, or assured hiring — whether verbal or written — made by franchise staff, counselors, or third-party representatives without written / documented approval from the BIA® Corporate Office shall be considered invalid, unauthorized, and legally void.
13. At the end of their academic tenure, students will be awarded a Dual Certificate corresponding to their enrolled program — Certification, Diploma, or Master Diploma. Certification will only be awarded upon successful completion of all academic components, including Capstone Project orientation, topic selection, timely submission, live presentation, evaluation, and final approval by a BIA®-empanelled trainer, as per the academic schedule of the student’s allotted batch. Diploma and Master Diploma Certificates will be awarded only after the student successfully completes their full internship tenure (as per the enrolled program) and the internship company issues an official experience letter confirming the same. Certificates of Distinction may be awarded to students who demonstrate outstanding academic performance, professional conduct, and consistency throughout the program, at the sole discretion of BIA®.”
