The CHEA Programme
CHEA is the applied programme built on the CHEM method (Cybernetics & Human Engineering Methods) by Parashmani Datta. 24 modules · 192 sessions · 12 months · self-paced. Where CHEM is the research, CHEA is the practice - one tangible output every session.
How CHEA works
1. Take CHET
Sit the short CHET aptitude test (₹1000). It is the gateway to CHEA - not a knowledge test.
2. Enrol course by course
Pay per course as you go. No lump sum - learn at your own pace, one course at a time.
3. Learn in your dashboard
All teaching, sessions and submissions happen in your personal Pratipariksha student dashboard.
4. Earn certificates
Get a certificate after every course, plus the full CHEA credential and a 96+ work portfolio.
The 8 Competency Pillars
By Month 12 you develop measurable capability in all eight.
1. Communication Intelligence
Precision in English, argument and professional communication.
2. Computational Thinking
Decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction and algorithm design.
3. Quantitative Intelligence
Number sense, statistical reasoning and data literacy.
4. Technological Intelligence
AI literacy, prompt engineering, app development and automation.
5. Systems Intelligence
Feedback loops, causal modelling and intervention design.
6. Strategic Intelligence
Business models, competitive strategy and financial planning.
7. Domain Applied Intelligence
Analytical tools applied to science, humanities, commerce & exams.
8. Human & Metacognitive Intelligence
Memory, bias awareness, calibration and personal mastery.
Fees - simple and pay-as-you-go
You pay one course at a time. There is no large upfront fee.
Tier 1 - Foundational (Courses 1-6)
₹2500 / course
Repeat a course for ₹1000.
Tier 2 - Advanced (Courses 7-12)
₹5000 / course

Every completed course earns an individual certificate that is valid for life - even if you do not finish all 12.
All 24 Modules
12 monthly courses, 2 modules each. Each course is self-contained - you benefit even if you take just one.
