Making a difference to learning
All these are a part of Simpliv’s endeavor to make learning accessible to just anyone who wants to learn. Simpliv believes that learning has to be shorn of class and elitism. It has to be available for anyone who wants to learn, and nothing should come in the way of gaining knowledge. No matter where a person is located, no matter which class or gender the person belongs to, and whether the person is rich or not, learning should be a skill and tool that everyone should possess. Simpliv believes in this noble intention, and is thus a learning platform with a difference.
