Azim Premji University is an Indian non-profit private university, located in Bengaluru, Karnataka.
About 5 to 15 per cent of children in classrooms in India have a learning disability. Policies mandate that all children need to be part of the regular school system, irrespective of their learning needs. But due to lack of awareness and poor implementation of the policies, children with disabilities are often forced to drop out of school. Teacher preparedness is critical for ensuring that children with learning disability become a part of an inclusive school system.
The diploma is designed for school teachers and school functionaries to understand learning disability as a condition and develop skills for identification, assessment and application of evidence-based teaching methods in inclusive classrooms.
This diploma is open to practicing regular school teachers, special educators, counsellors and school heads working in private and public school systems in India.
