AICTE mandated a certificate program for the engineering teachers

AICTE mandated a certificate program for the engineering teachers



From this year, All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has mandated an eight-month-long certificate program for the teachers in engineering colleges. Anil Sahasrabudhe, chairperson of AICTE said that the contents of the modules have been drafted by the council based on how teachers in the engineering colleges should participate in the framework, adopt new tools and technologies and qualify for the teaching job in the engineering colleges. AICTE further said that PhD and MPhil holders will also have to go through the certificate program. Anil Sahasrabudhe further said ‘there is a need to regulate the teaching in the engineering colleges and we have set up a committee to draft a module which the new age teachers will have to undergo before they can be recruited.’ The draft is available on the official website of the AICTE and is inviting the response from the stakeholders. The module will be delivered to the new recruits through the colleges of the state and these colleges will eventually be asked to ensure that their teachers have taken the certification program as well.
