Assessment & Accreditation

       Assessment and Accreditation
The forces of globalization and liberalization influenced the Indian Higher education in a big way. In a situation where Higher education, similar to the goods and other services has to compete internationally, quality assurance becomes inevitable.

           NAAC lays focus on the institutional developments with reference to three aspects:     Quality initiative, Quality sustenance and Quality enhancement. The overall quality assurance framework of NAAC thus focuses on the values and desirable practices of colleges and incorporates the core elements of quality assurance i.e. internal and external assessment for continuous improvement.
