DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE
“The Future belongs to those who can be trained and retrained again and again.” Daniel Burns.
The 21st century has come to be known as the age of information. In this globalized era, the teachers of higher learning are required to be thorough professionals fully equipped with excellent academic standards and pedagogical tools. Any pursuit called ‘teaching’ or ‘learning’ has to necessarily keep pace with the constant flow of information and growth of knowledge. The quality of teaching to a great extent depends on updating the knowledge base and outlook of the teachers at regular intervals. The UGC-ASC by organizing various courses seek to aid academic development of the teachers concerned from time to time for ensuring quality education.
