ITEP

About the Programme

The Integrated Teacher Education Programme (ITEP), introduced by the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE), is a comprehensive four-year undergraduate course aimed at producing well-rounded, skilled educators. In line with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, ITEP effectively merges general education with professional teacher training, offering a holistic, multidisciplinary approach to teaching.

This forward-thinking program blends theoretical learning, practical experience, and internships, providing students with essential teaching skills and pedagogical knowledge. By streamlining the curriculum, ITEP seeks to elevate the quality of teacher education and cultivate educators who are equipped to thrive in both elementary and secondary classrooms.

ITEP graduates are thoroughly prepared to face the challenges of modern education and contribute meaningfully to the development of future generations.

Digboi College (Autonomous), a provincialized institution under the Government of Assam, holds a prestigious NAAC A+ grade (CGPA 3.49). The college adheres to the guidelines set by the Department of Higher Education, Government of Assam, and the University Grants Commission (UGC).
