About the Notification
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 has highlighted the critical importance of integrating Skill Education into school and higher education systems. In line with this vision, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has initiated efforts to promote skill-based learning starting from Class 6 in all its affiliated schools.
To further this objective, CBSE is organizing a series of exposure visits for school principals to esteemed organizations and higher education institutions (HEIs) across India. These visits aim to familiarize school leaders with institutions of eminence, fostering opportunities for collaboration and enabling the integration of skill education into mainstream curricula.
Objectives of the Exposure Visits
- Fostering Collaboration: Enable schools to collaborate with HEIs for skill-based education and utilize their infrastructure in a time-shift manner.
- Inspiring Implementation: Equip principals with insights and best practices to incorporate skill education into their schools effectively.
- Building Networks: Create a platform for schools to connect with industry experts and academic institutions to enhance vocational education programs.
