NCERT: THE PREMIER BODY IN SCHOOL EDUCATION
The National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) develops the
curriculum, textbooks and instructional materials and trains the key functionaries
and conducts research in various dimensions of school education. The NCERT
functions through its eight constituent units, viz. National Institute of Education
(NIE), (b) Central Institute of Educational Technology (CIET) - both located at New
Delhi, (c) Pandit Sunderlal Sharma Central Institute of Vocational Education
(PSSCIVE), Bhopal and five Regional Institutes of Education (RIEs) at Ajmer, Bhopal,
Bhubaneswar, Mysuru and Shillong.

PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES: The programmes aim to develop fluency in English


language amongst the school teachers and other aspiring learners.

RELEVANCE OF THE PROGRAMMES: English is one of the most important


languages to be taught at school level. But it is often observed that the teachers of
English do not have good fluency and pedagogy in the subject, especially the
teachers working in the school of rural and semi-urban areas. The proposed
“Certificate in Communication Skills” (CCS) will provide them an opportunity to
develop good fluency and skill in English and use better pedagogy in English
teaching. The course content is prepared in sync with the National Curriculum
Framework for School Education (NCF-SE), 2023 to empower the teachers to
develop required competencies in the learners. They will also equip the teachers
with 21st century skills like Critical thinking, Creativity, Collaboration, and
Communication which are essential skills for modern students to succeed in school
and the workplace.

PROGRAMME HIGHLIGHTS: The Programmes consist of components in English


language learning and teaching it as a second language in the multilingual contexts.
They not only include the basic language skills like listening, speaking, reading and
writing but also the advanced language skills like communication skills,
pronunciation, note-making, academic writing etc.

PROGRAMME TRANSACTION: The Programmes are developed and offered by


Regional Institute of Education, Bhopal. They are a self-financing programme that
will run annually in the blended mode. The learners will do self-learning using text
and video materials during the weekdays. The expert faculty will engage weekly
online classes to discuss important topics during the weekends.
