college faculty members under one roof to
discuss the coverage of the given course, learn
from the team experiences and plan actions
for rolling-out the same in respective colleges.
• Enable partnering colleges in rolling out the given
course in a deep dive manner, i.e. the faculty should

in-class facilitation and assessment methods to
enhance student learning effectiveness
• Share our IP and thus develop large pool of
faculty across the nation to deliver courses
comprehensively.
• To enhance the capabilities of the participating
faculty through technical inputs.
• Introduce to the participants some of the latest
technologies, industry best practices and
methodologies.
