Tura, Feb 4: The Don Bosco College here and the IQAC of the college organized an orientation on National Education Policy (NEP) – 2020 at Pastoral Centre, Walbakgre on Feb 2 and 3 for its teaching and non-teaching staff members.

The main thrust of the orientation programme is to give the comprehensive picture of National Education Policy- 2020, Choice Based Credit System (CBCS), Academic Bank of Credit (ABC) and Autonomy.

Dr Ordetta Mendoza, Former IQAC Coordinator, Stella Maris College, Chennai and Dr Sebastian Vadakkan, Associate Professor, Department of Biochemistry, former Vice-Principal and IQAC coordinator, St. Xavier’s College (Autonomous), Ahmedabad were the resource persons.

The role of higher education institutions, the structure of higher education, the course outcome, credit system and the skill-oriented courses were discussed in the orientation. Dr Ordetta Mendoza in her session put forward the idea of how the institution has to plan the curriculum when it comes to autonomy. “The NEP 2020 stresses on autonomy of all higher education institutions and one of the important aspects is the framing of the curriculum and syllabi by the institution. Curriculum should be framed to suit the needs of present and future generation of students,” she said.

In the second session, Dr. Sebastian Vadakkan orientated on Choice Based Credit System and Academic Bank of Credit. He also demonstrated the frameworks for the four year undergraduate courses suggested by NEP 2020.

The Principal, Fr Bivan Rodriques Mukhim, led the participants in prayer while Dr Barbara S. Sangma, IQAC Coordinator welcomed the gathering and briefed about the importance of orientation.
