Frequently asked questions

Entlar Training is for engineering students, working professionals, and serious hardware enthusiasts in electronics, embedded systems, mechanical, or related disciplines. If you want real hands-on skills in motor control, PCB design, embedded firmware, robotics, or EV systems — not just theory — these programs are designed for you. There is no strict prerequisite for entry-level tracks, but advanced cohorts require foundational knowledge of electronics or firmware.

A Cohort is a live, batch-based program with a fixed start date, fixed end date, limited seats, and real-time mentor sessions with the Entlar team. It runs like a structured engineering sprint. A Training is a structured self-paced program with recorded content and a flexible schedule — still includes mandatory projects and mentor review, but without fixed live sessions. Both types issue verified certificates upon completion.

Six core engineering domains: Motor Control Engineering (BLDC, FOC, STM32, inverter design), PCB Design & Power Electronics (KiCad 8, multilayer layout, DFM), Embedded Firmware Engineering (FreeRTOS, CAN 2.0B, Modbus RTU), Robotics & Automation Systems (AMR, servo control, sensor fusion), EV Drivetrain Systems (BMS, inverter architecture, vehicle integration), and Hardware Product Development (concept to production, prototyping, DFM). 9 programs currently available across these domains.

Every Entlar program is built around hands-on deliverables. The curriculum includes real hardware builds, firmware projects, schematic design exercises, PCB layout assignments, and a mandatory capstone project at the end. We deliberately minimize slide-based theory in favour of build-first learning. You will wire things, break things, debug things, and document what you learned.

Programs range from 6 weeks (entry-level training programs) to 12 weeks (advanced cohorts). The weekly time commitment is approximately 8–12 hours for cohorts and 5–8 hours for self-paced training programs. All durations are listed on each program page.

Yes. Many students complete multiple Entlar programs sequentially. There is no lock-in. You can enroll in any combination of cohorts and training programs. A learning path guide will be published to help you sequence programs across domains effectively.

Yes. The Entlar engineering team actively builds real products — motor controllers, robotics platforms, EV systems. Curriculum updates are pulled directly from what the team is working on. If a new technique or tool becomes standard in the field, it will be reflected in the program content.

Visit the Cohorts & Training page, select your program, and fill out the enrollment application form. The form collects your background, goals, and experience level. Enrollment is open — there is no competitive selection process. After submitting your application, you complete payment via Razorpay to confirm your seat. Seats are allocated in order of confirmed payment.

Program fees range from ₹1,000 for 6-week entry-level training programs to ₹3,000 for 12-week advanced cohorts. All fees are one-time and non-recurring. There are no hidden charges. Selected Razorpay payment methods support EMI — check availability at checkout based on your card or bank.

No. Enrollment is open to all. There is no interview, entrance test, or competitive selection. The enrollment form is for us to understand your background so we can personalise guidance — not to filter applicants. That said, advanced cohorts clearly specify the foundational knowledge expected for a productive experience.

EMI options via Razorpay are available for select credit cards and lending partners. The option will appear at checkout if your payment method is eligible. We do not offer manual instalment plans outside of Razorpay's built-in options.

A full refund is issued if requested within 3 days of enrollment confirmation and before the cohort start date. No refunds are issued after cohort content has been accessed or after the cohort start date — whichever comes first. For training programs (self-paced), refunds are only available within 48 hours of enrollment and before any content is accessed. Contact training@entlar.com for refund requests.

No formal scholarship program exists currently. Occasional early-bird pricing or group enrollment discounts may be offered for specific cohorts. Follow Entlar on LinkedIn or subscribe to updates to be notified. We are committed to keeping fees accessible — the current price range (₹1,000–₹3,000) is deliberately lower than comparable programs.

Most programs require a laptop, a USB-capable STM32 development board (such as the Nucleo-F446RE or similar), and a basic electronics toolkit (multimeter, soldering iron, breadboard). A detailed hardware and components list is shared with enrolled students. Advanced cohorts may require access to a PCB fabrication service (JLCPCB, PCBWay) for your capstone project.

Select cohorts offer an optional discounted hardware component kit at enrollment. This is not mandatory — you can source components independently. If a kit is available for your cohort, it will be listed on the program page with pricing before enrollment.

STM32CubeIDE (free) for firmware programs. KiCad 8 (free) for PCB design programs. Git and GitHub are required across all programs for submitting firmware and documentation. Additional tools are program-specific and free — we do not require any paid software subscriptions.

All major components used in Entlar programs are available on Robu.in, Mouser India, and Amazon India. Shipping reaches most Indian cities within 3–5 days. For PCB fabrication, JLCPCB and PCBWay offer 2-week turnarounds with India shipping. We factor component lead times into cohort schedules.

Live sessions are conducted over Google Meet or Zoom. Links are shared via your student dashboard and email before each session. Sessions typically run 60–90 minutes. All sessions are recorded and available in the student dashboard within 24 hours of the session.

All live sessions are recorded. If you miss a session, the recording will be available in your dashboard within 24 hours. Mentor Q&A from the session is also summarised in the session notes. Missing sessions does not affect your enrollment status.

Yes. Enrolled students retain access to all recorded sessions, session notes, assignments, and cohort resources for 6 months after the cohort end date. After 6 months, extended access can be requested — contact training@entlar.com.

Each cohort batch has a dedicated group channel (likely WhatsApp or Discord) for peer discussion, questions, and project sharing. Interaction with other engineers in the cohort is a significant part of the learning. Peer code review and schematic review are included in some programs.

Yes. Upon completing the program and submitting your capstone project for review, you receive a verified Entlar Training certificate. Each certificate is issued as a PDF with a unique identifier and a public verification URL (hosted on training.entlar.com/certifications/verify/[id]) that anyone can visit to confirm its authenticity.

After each cohort, the Entlar engineering team reviews all submitted capstone projects. Top-performing graduates — identified by engineering depth, documentation quality, and hardware performance — are contacted for Entlar R&D internships. There is no separate application. Focus on building well. The pipeline will find you.

Yes. Entlar R&D internships are compensated. Stipend details are shared at the time of the internship offer and depend on the role and duration. Internships are project-based and typically last 3–6 months.

Yes. Each certificate includes a public verification link. Employers can visit that URL to confirm authenticity, the program name, completion date, and capstone project summary. Certificates are issued under the Entlar name and are backed by the Entlar engineering team's review of your capstone work.
