Annual Report 2008-2009 (NUEPA)

Abstract

From An Overview: National University of Educational Planning and Administration (NUEPA) is an apex Indian institution in educational planning and administration. Beginning as the UNESCO Regional Centre for Training of Educational Planners, Administrators and Supervisors in Asia and the Pacific in 1961-62, NUEPA is now a Deemed University, fully sponsored by the Government of India. As it has changed its status and has become an autonomous organization, there has been a paradigm shift in its philosophy, functioning and development. It has shifted its focus from being primarily a delivery institution to a resource institution. Earlier, the emphasis was on staff training; it has now shifted to research and professionalization of capacity building efforts. NUEPA is basically a research University - aiming at supporting human capacity building through research.
