3. Re-imagining Vocational
Education
Less than 5% of Indian workforce in the age 19-24
received formal vocational education.
Vocational education was considered inferior to
"mainstream" or "academic" education and was meant
for people who are not able to cope with the latter.
Acc to this amendment, Vocational capacities will go
hand in hand with academic capacities.
Vocational Education will be introduced at early stages
in middle and secondary school.
By 2025, at least 50% of students shall have exposure
to vocational education.

4. Catalyzing Quality Academic
Research in all fields through
a new NRF
The criticality of research is more than ever with the rapid
changes occurring in the world today, e.g., the rise
of machine learning and artificial intelligence.
Despite this, the research and innovation investment in
India is, at the current time, only 0.69% of the GDP.
The primary activities of the NRF(National Research
Foundation) will be to:
(a) fund competitive, peer-reviewed grant proposals
across all disciplines.
(b) seed, grow, and facilitate research at academic
institutions, particularly at universities and colleges.
(c) act as a liaison (or translator) between researchers
and relevant branches of government as well as
industry.
(d) recognise outstanding research and progress with
prizes and awards.

5. Transforming the Regulatory System of Higher Education
National Higher
Education Regulatory
Council (NHERC)
National Accreditation
Council (NAC)
Higher Education Grant
s Council (HEGC)
General Education
Council (GEC)
It will function as the
common, single point
regulator for the higher
education sector
excluding medical and
legal education.
‘meta-accrediting body’
Accreditation of
institutions will be based
primarily on basic norms,
public self-disclosure,
good governance, and
outcomes supervised by
NAC.
It will carry out funding
and financing of higher
education based on
transparent criteria.
It will frame expected
learning outcomes for
higher education
programmes,
also referred to as
‘graduate attributes’.
National Higher
Education Qualification
Framework (NHEQF) will
be in sync with the
National Skills
Qualifications Framework
(NSQF).
Introducing one Umbrella Institution, Higher Education Commission of India (HECI) & it's four
vertical pillars

6. Effective Governance & Leadership for Higher
Education Institutions
Through a suitable system of graded
accreditation in a phased manner over a period of
15 years, all HEIs in India will aim to become
independent self-governing institutions pursuing
innovation and excellence.
Board of Governors (BoG) shall be established
consisting of a group of highly qualified, and
dedicated
individuals having proven capabilities and
a strong sense of commitment to the institution.
BoG will be responsible for meeting all regulatory
guidelines mandated by HECI through the
National Higher
Education Regulatory Council (NHERC)
