The application will provide information and data filled in by various institutions in the public domain

The Union Minister for Human Resource Development, Kapil Sibal, has inaugurated a new web-based application for the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) that will provide information and data filled in by various institutions in the public domain. The aim is to promote transparency and accountability in its functioning.

The application will also help students identify the institute of their choice.

The AICTE has also implemented Business Intelligence Report which will provide current statistics on courses, programmes, faculty and students for the general public and stakeholders.

To ensure maximum transparency in application processing, the AICTE has introduced an SMS service that will update the status of the applications made under various categories to AICTE for approval.

Just putting the faculty and course information in the public domain might not be great. You should also put faculty qualifications and experience, placement data, research papers published by the faculty, patents filed, consultancy offered, special initiatives for the students, linkages with the industry, other facilities/amenities etc. The data in the public domain has to be meaningful and not just numbers.

MERGE OF NTMIS TO Web-based Application

THE Web-based Application WILL BE MORE MEANINGFUL IF NATIONAL TECHNICAL MANPOWER INFORMATION SYSTEM (NTMIS) WHICH HAS BEEN RUNNING IN IAMR, NEW DELHI FOR THE LAST 27 YEARS SHOULD BE MERGED WITH THE NEW WEB-BASED APPLICATION. I THINK AICTE WILL TAKE PROPER MEASURE FOR THE SAME.
