To ensure that the promises made by the institutions providing higher education match reality, the UGC is framing guidelines to streamline the website information provided by these institutions. The rules will apply to both government funded and private unaided institutions.
“To internationalise education services and for transparency, we are laying down a model publication scheme for websites of higher education institutions. The whole idea is to provide correct, credible information on facilities, faculty,training and affiliation to students and applicants”, the sources said.
It has been observed that the loopholes in the Consumer Protection Act, Monopolies and Restrictive trade Practises Commission Act are exploited by higher education industry and are used to get away with the wrong information.
Under the scheme, all higher education institutions will compile a separate information chart for their websites, which will be certified by UGC and hosted on its own website too.
Once the scheme is drafted, it will add on to the draft of education law and the consensus norms posted online for response, it can then be forwarded to the HRD Ministry for notification
