soundSoch Foundation was established in April 2026, following the foundation of healthSoch Academy in 2024.
Prior to these initiatives, our team gained extensive experience at the Distance Education Unit of Christian Medical College (CMC), Vellore. During this period, the team designed and delivered pioneering interdisciplinary mental health courses for both medical and non-medical audiences. Key achievements include developing the innovative, one-year blended learning Post Graduate Diploma in Mental Health (PGDMH)—which trained general physicians alongside non-medical graduates—and the Certificate in Community Mental Health (CCMH) for the general public.
Our team brings global perspective and deep field experience, having contextualized training for international participants across Africa, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we delivered targeted stress management webinars and workshops for hospitals, academic institutions, non-profits, and corporate organizations. Beyond mental health, our expertise extends to instructional design for online and blended programs in disability care, lifestyle medicine, and bioethics—empowering subject matter experts to effectively integrate adult learning principles and educational technology.
