International Training for Nepalese Professors Concludes in Bhopal
The National Institute of Technical Teachers' Training and Research (NITTTR) in Bhopal successfully concluded a five-day international training program on November 5, 2026. The event, held from November 1 to 5, 2026, aimed to advance the second phase of Outcome-Based Curriculum Development (OBBD) for Electrical, Electronics, and Civil Engineering programs.
Organized in collaboration with the Nepal Engineering Council, the program saw the participation of 31 professors from eight leading universities in Nepal. The training focused on translating theoretical foundations into practical applications, with participants engaging in intensive sessions on crucial aspects such as mapping course outcomes, selecting effective learning methodologies, and structuring capstone projects.
Participants also successfully developed rubrics for project evaluation and created high-level question papers for outcome assessment. This initiative is seen as a significant step towards aligning regional technical education with international standards.
