🗂️ Frequently Requested Support

How to start a debate club
Starting a debate club at your institute is an exciting way to build students’ critical thinking, public speaking, and leadership skills. Begin by identifying a faculty member or staff advisor who can oversee the club’s activities and serve as a mentor.
Preparing students for debate competitions involves structured training, regular practice, and strategic mentorship. Begin by assessing students’ current skill levels to group them into Novice, Intermediate, or Varsity categories. Introduce them to common debate formats, rules, and judging criteria used in competitions. Conduct weekly training sessions focused on speech organization, case building, rebuttal techniques, cross-examination, and time management. Incorporate mock debates and timed drills to simulate real tournament environments. Encourage students to watch and analyze past debate rounds to understand winning strategies. For deeper learning, bring in experienced debate coaches or enroll students in specialized workshops. Most importantly, provide constructive feedback, track their progress, and boost their confidence before entering any competition.
Our Faculty Coaching & Certification Programs are designed to equip educators with the skills, strategies, and confidence to guide students in competitive debating. These programs provide comprehensive training on debate formats, adjudication techniques, argument development, case construction, and coaching best practices. Whether you’re a teacher new to debating or an experienced mentor looking to enhance your methods, our certification ensures you are well-prepared to lead a successful debate program within your institution.

We provide partner institutes with regular access to curated topic briefs and sample debates to support student preparation and practice. Our topic briefs are research-backed documents that include background information, key arguments for both sides, statistics, examples, and possible rebuttals — all aligned with current affairs and age-appropriate themes. These briefs help students quickly understand complex issues and build strong, well-structured cases. In addition, our library of sample debate transcripts and video recordings allows students and faculty to observe effective debating styles, structure, and time management in action.

We understand that a smooth technical setup is crucial for effective online training and debate sessions. That’s why we offer dedicated technical support to help institutes, faculty, and students navigate virtual platforms with ease. Whether you’re using Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, or a custom LMS, our team provides assistance with account setup, breakout room management, audio/video troubleshooting, screen sharing, and recording features. We also offer pre-session checks and live tech support during major workshops or competitions to ensure everything runs seamlessly. For institutes new to online learning, we provide user guides, video tutorials, and one-on-one walkthroughs to make the transition smooth and stress-free. Our goal is to create a friction-free digital environment where students can focus on learning and debating
