NEP goal: DU invites applications for CES scheme, session to begin in August
The scheme, aligned with the goals of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, offers a unique opportunity for lifelong learners to study alongside regular students in semester I, III, and V courses offered by various departments and colleges of the university.
The CES initiative is designed to support individuals of any age in enhancing their academic knowledge. It especially aims to serve those who may have missed earlier educational opportunities and provides a platform for skill upgrading using the latest technology and innovation.
Under the scheme, individuals meeting the eligibility and course-specific prerequisites can apply. Admissions are subject to the availability of seats, which will be treated as supernumerary, ensuring they do not displace regular students.
Applicants can choose from a wide range of papers listed in the CES e-brochure, available on the University of Delhi's admission portal (www.admission.uod.du.ac.in) and the website of the Institute of Lifelong Learning (ILLL). The registration window for CES is open from July 24 to July 29, with admissions beginning July 29. The academic session will commence on August 1.

State begins merging edu data systems to reduce teachers' workload
1 2 Pune: The state govt has initiated the integration of two key educational data systems — Unified District Information System for Education (UDISE) and Systematic Administrative Reforms for Achieving Learning by Students (SARAL). The fusion will streamline data entry processes and eliminate duplication of work which has long been a pain point for over 7.43 lakh teachers in the state. At present, teachers have to enter the same student-related information such as attendance, academic performance, enrolment, dropout data, and infrastructure details into both platforms on both portals. You Can Also Check: Pune AQI | Weather in Pune | Bank Holidays in Pune | Public Holidays in Pune This redundancy not only consumes valuable teaching time but also adds to clerical stress during the academic year. Under the new plan, the state's 2.11 crore school students will now be mapped through a unified system, enabling teachers to update and manage data from a single point of access, the education department said. Maharashtra Samagra Shiksha is spearheading the initiative. "From this academic year, the process of integrating information from the UDISE and SARAL systems has begun," director Sanjay Yadav said. He added that education officers have been told to ensure that no student is left out of school. "The integrated system will be more teacher-friendly and reduce time spent on non-teaching tasks, allowing educators to focus more on classroom engagement and student learning outcomes," Yadav said. The move is seen as part of a larger effort to modernise the state's education management system and support the goals of National Education Policy which emphasises reducing non-academic workload on teachers. Mahendra Ganpule, former vice-president of Maharashtra Headmasters' Association, said, "Teachers will now be able to enter information at one time and in one place, saving them time and effort." More time for teaching efforts Teachers entered students' personal information into the SARAL system, including names, classes, attendance, and detailed basic information The central govt's UDISE system required comprehensive information about the school, physical facilities, school activities, libraries, students' bank accounts, scholarships, and materials quote Entering information into both govt online systems consumed a significant amount of teachers' time which also led to neglect in improving educational standards. This integration will be crucial for accreditation and exam management Rajesh Deshmukh I A ZP teacher from Velhe Get the latest lifestyle updates on Times of India, along with Friendship Day wishes , messages and quotes !
