The technical education regulator says some 10,500 institutions, including business schools and engineering colleges, won’t be physically inspected for any approval, whether academic, infrastructure, or in allied areas, from this year onward.
The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has told institutions to opt for self-disclosure instead of depending on education invigilators. The move, authorities and institutions believe, will improve mutual trust and make education regulation ‘light but tight’. It is also likely to improve accountability at the institutional level and help education players enjoy more freedom.
“Like the labour reforms that ended inspector computer engineering jobs, this reform will end red-tape in the professional education regulation space. There will be virtual scrutiny instead and it will end harassment and build trust," said an official familiar with the development requesting anonymity.
