RAJSHAHI, June 1, 2022 (BSS) - Rajshahi University of Engineering and Technology (RUET) has arranged a daylong training workshop for its newly appointed teachers aimed at making them competent to prevent anomalies in accreditation.
Initiated by Institutional Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC), the training titled "Bangladesh National Qualifications Framework and Bangladesh Accreditation Council Standard for Accreditation" was held at its administrative building.
Vice-chancellor (VC) Prof Rafiqul Islam Sheikh addressed the opening ceremony as chief guest, while Registrar Prof Selim Hossain and Research and Extension Director Prof Faruque Hossain spoke as special guests with IQAC Director Prof Abdul Goffar Khan in the chair.
IQAC Additional Director Prof Imdadul Haque welcomed the participants.
VC Prof Rafiqul Islam told the participants that the UGC has developed a national qualifications framework for higher studies for Bangladesh Accreditation Council (BAC), which would provide guidance to students pursuing higher education.
With this breakthrough, any student can get information about the learning process and skills before his or her admission or studies in different sectors.
It will also help maintain international standards in Bangladesh's education system, he hoped.
The framework covers all sectors including skills, technical, vocational, and academic sectors. It was designed based on a credit point system and qualification levels.
The country's higher education system is designed under three structures
- bachelors, masters and doctoral degrees.
He urged the participating teachers to make the best use of their knowledge to be acquired from the training workshop, in their practical field.
"We have to take the responsibility of taking all the RUET's academic and administrative activities forward for the sake of generating knowledgeable human resources in the field of technical and engineering fields," he added.
A total of 35 teachers from different departments took part in the training workshop.
