The education industry is witnessing a massive shift in all areas right from curriculum to teacher pedagogy. Teachers play a huge role in this transformation and are the pillars of our education system. Hence, as institutions progress into new formats, it is important for teachers to upskill and be empowered to bring in a fresh perspective.
In order to provide them with opportunities where they can learn, grow and enhance their teaching skills, India has seen the rise of some excellent Olympiad platforms dedicated to teacher upskilling. These Olympiads are designed to focus on the Indian government’s vision stated in the National Education Policy that talks about empowering teachers who are passionate, high-qualified, professional trained and well-equipped with contemporary teaching standards.
Today, teachers can opt for these olympiads and get a chance to be seen as a leader and continuous learners in their profession while also getting international opportunities.
