The quality assurance system ensures that the content of the teacher training programs reflects society’s need for trained teaching professionals with extensive knowledge and practical skills in areas such as teaching techniques, curriculum design, lesson planning, classroom management and pedagogical innovation, and that the graduates’ choices of methods and approaches to teaching is effective and at par with international standards.

What do we mean by quality?
Evaluating quality in teacher education depends on the processes to
ensure quality and on meeting the learning outcomes of the courses.
Assuring the quality of learning is the primary objective of quality
assurance for an educational institution, and therefore the processes are
taken into consideration in the overall quality assurance policy.
The Academic team focuses on two vital elements - process quality and
learning experience.
Process Quality
Processes consider the quality of the training courses and ensure that they are run properly as per the set norms laid down by the Board of Academics as well as different accrediting and awarding bodies. Courses must be delivered in a structured and systematic manner assuring the quality of study materials and training process, with minimal gaps in the system. The trainers and tutors must also comply with the guidelines for achieving the targets set by the institution’s Board of Academics.
Learning Experience
