Eminent academicians and institutional leaders addressed the participants, providing practical insights into policy implementation strategies at the university and college levels. Sessions included interactive discussions, case-based examples, and clarity on regulatory provisions to ensure effective adoption of NEP reforms within affiliated institutions.
The collaborative effort between VIEAT and UGC-MMTTC, Central University of Gujarat, reflects a strong commitment toward academic transformation aligned with national education priorities. The programme provided a structured platform for faculty members to understand policy objectives, curriculum restructuring processes, credit frameworks, and innovative teaching-learning practices.
Overall, the Online NEP 2020 Orientation and Sensitization Programme – 35 significantly contributed to building awareness, strengthening institutional preparedness, and equipping educators with the knowledge required to implement NEP 2020 effectively in their academic environments.
