NAAC introduces major reforms in higher education accreditation

THE higher education quality, a key aspect of National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, will undergo significant improvements with reforms from the Dr Radhakrishnan Committee.

- 

Approved by the Ministry of Education and adopted by NAAC, the plan includes Binary Accreditation and MaturityBased Graded Levels to enhance educational standards.

To implement these changes, the Apex Committee and various Discipline-wise Committees conducted approximately 40 meetings, consulting stakeholders to finalise the necessary manuals and processes for Binary Accreditation.

In the coming months, NAAC will conduct five regional workshops to gather feedback from universities and colleges on the Binary Accreditation manual before its official launch. Also, NAAC plans to engage with Higher Education Departments and Councils across states to ensure widespread participation in the new accreditation process.
