National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) has invited online application for the 4 Year Integrated Teacher Education Programmes (ITEP) for Academic Session 2023-24.

About:

  • ITEP, as notified on 22nd October 2021, is a dual-major holistic bachelor’s degree offering B.A. B.Ed./ B. Sc. B. Ed. and B.Com. B.Ed.

  • It is one of the major mandates of the National Education Policy 2020 related to Teacher Education. It will be offered in pilot mode initially in multidisciplinary Central/State Government Universities/Institutions across the country.

  • Admission for the same will be carried out by the National Testing Agency (NTA) through the National Common Entrance Test (NCET).

  • NCTE under Ministry of Education has devised the curriculum for this course as per NEP 2020 in such a way that it enables a student-teacher to get a degree in education as well as a specialized discipline such as history, mathematics, science, arts, economics, or commerce.

  • The 4 Year ITEP will be available for all students who choose teaching as a profession after secondary, by choice.

  • This integrated course will benefit students since they will save one year by finishing it in four years rather than the customary five years required by the present B.Ed. plan.
