PRIORITISNG QUALITY OVER QUANTIY. THESE ARE EXCITING TIMES
FOR ALL STAKEHOLDERS.

12th
and 13th
year plans of govt
envisage doubling of student
enrollments in colleges by 2030.
Schemes like RUSA have been
announced to drive result

EDU VC RETREAT 2014
3. ADAPTING TO CHANGE IS DAUNTING. EDUCATIONISTS WHILE
EXCITED ABOUT THE RENEWED FOCUS ON QUALITY AND
PERFOMANCE NEED GUIDANCE AND HELP TO LEVERAGE THESE
OPPORTUNITIES OR THEY RISK BING PERISHED IN THE COMPETITION
01. POOR CLARITY 02.LOW AWARENESS 03. IDEAS DEFICIT
Educationists want to know how
can they position themselves to
benefit from the funding
opportunities by govt. They are
desirous to know the priorities and
approach of the new government
for higher education
Surveys continue to reveal that
lack of awareness about
technology solutions ,for higher
education, is the biggest pain
point of educationists.
Educationist seek ideas which
they can execute at their colleges
to get government support and
improve quality of education
