It is recommended that these be completed and emailed to us ahead of each subsequent module so as to enable us to review the work. The interactive nature of these modules is not limited to just Q&A sessions in between classes and is largely dependent on your continued participation even after each module is completed. Document files to be sent in pdf / word or open office format, Image files to be in jpg format and limited to max 1mb in size. Video files may only be uploaded to personal / public sites and a link to the same should to be emailed to us.

All rights of the individual work sent to us remain with the respective authors / creators and shall be assumed and recognised as such. Please send in material only if you agree to the use of the same by RamSinghKumaresh in their masterclasses for demonstrative purposes. Happy hunting!
