The world is expecting huge number of employment opportunities for skilled jobs of a creative and multidisciplinary nature through forthcoming industrial revolution. India with its largest young population will certainly lead this revolution if these youth are equipped with knowledge, skills, attitude and values. The learners are expected to be expert in one or more specialised areas of interest, while at the same time need to acquire abilities of independent, logical, and scientific thinking along with creativity, problem solving, and decision making skills.

The higher education system in India which is third largest in the world, needs to be revamped to match the changing dynamics of requirements of these learners. Aiming at this goal, the draft National Education Policy 2019 proposed by MHRD, GoI, is all set to change the educational landscape through pathbreaking reforms. A new educational architecture is proposed that is aligned with the aspirational goals of 21st century education and is centered on empowered faculty with high competence and deep commitment, energised for excellence in teaching and research.

Focusing on this new architecture, the Academic council of NRC has designed this online refresher course on “Skills for New Educational Architecture”.

The intended learners of this course are faculty of higher education who would be trained to master the skills needed in this new architecture.

This course being interdisciplinary in nature is open for all in service faculty of higher education.
