Taking the vision of the new National Education Policy (NEP) as envisioned under the dynamic
leadership of our Hon’ble Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, the Government of India has developed the National Credit Framework (NCrF) to enable the integration of academic and vocational domains to ensure flexibility and mobility between the two. NCrF would be a game changer by opening numerous options for further progression of students and inter-mingling of school and higher education with vocational education and experiential learning, thus mainstreaming skilling and vocational education. NCrF will also enable students who have dropped out of mainstream education to re-enter the education ecosystem.

NCrF will seamlessly integrate the credits earned through school education, higher education, and
vocational and skill education by encompassing the National Higher Education Qualification Framework (NHEQF), National Skills Qualification Framework (NSQF) and National School Education Qualification Framework (NSEQF). It also supports educational acceleration for students with gifted learning abilities and Recognition of Prior Learning for the workforce that has acquired knowledge and skills informally through the traditional family inheritance, work experience or other methods. The inclusive umbrella framework aims to make the options for Multiple Entry-Multiple Exit accessible and applicable across higher education, school education and vocational education, allowing students to choose their own learning trajectories and programmes.

The framework has been jointly developed by a committee constituted by the Government with members from UGC, AICTE, NCVET, NIOS, CBSE, NCERT, Department of School Education and Literacy & Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Education, DGT, and Ministry of Skill Development under the guidance of Union Minister of Education and Minister of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship.

The Government is inviting comments and observations by the 30th of November on the document
which is available in the link below for download.

Good Initiative. The syllabus should be relevant and it should be have real history. All distorted stories should be removed. Students should know about the real freedom fighters. Students should be able to learn the subjects easily with fun based activities. They should not feel it's tough. A separate website with relevant videos and study materials to download should be there. A helpline with a dedicated team of retired teachers to clarify doubts will be very helpful. Likewise a tuition centre for poor students to study without fees will benefit many needy people. A uniform fees in all Private Schools has to be fixed by the Government. A suprise check and interview with parents on fees structure should be conducted. Those who charge exhorbiant fees should be penalised. Quality of education and facilities in all Government schools should be improved. Teachers who don't come to schools or lethargic should be suspended. These has to be implemented to get better results.

The NCrF empowers institutions and enables them with the required flexibility for catering to their specific academic requirements for creating imaginative and flexible curricular structures, creative combinations of disciplines and other special needs.

Assignment of Credits has been enabled for online, digital and blended learning in vocational education and skilling to expand the open /distance learning options and to promote extensive use of technology in learning & skilling. This would help in overcoming the constraints of physical infrastructure & scalability while enhancing access, equity, and affordability and ensuring quality and accountability. The blended learning option shall also enhance accessibility of learning in Indian language for 90% non-English medium students as well as for Divyangs.

The total Credit Points earned by the student could be obtained by multiplying the credits earned with the NCrF Level at which the credits have been earned. The credit points may be redeemed as per the guidelines of Academic Bank of Credit (ABC) for entry or admission in school, higher, technical or vocational education programs/ courses at multiple levels enabling horizontal and vertical mobility with various lateral entry options. In addition to the credits for higher education, the Academic Bank of Credit (ABC) shall also be expanded for credits earned through school education, vocational education and skilling, apprenticeships, internships, project work etc. ABC could digitally store the academic and other credits earned from recognized institutions so that credits could be redeemed and the relevant award granted taking into account the credits earned at various NCrF levels. The credits may also be linked to Digi locker for easy verification and portability.

The assessment is thus mandatory for earning credits for all types of learning and progression to the next assessment band. The Assessment Bands are the stages at which the student/ learner needs to be formally assessed for progression in academic/ vocational/ skilling streams. (e.g. 10th/ 12th board exams, DGT’s assessment and exams for CTS, UG/ PG semester exams). The NCrF Credits for the two courses/ qualifications/ programs may be added to each other and accumulated in ABC if these are earned in the same assessment band, subject to the guidelines of the respective regulators. The NCrF credit levels for school education are upto level 4, while for higher education from Level 4.5. to level 8 [Under Graduate Levels 4.5, 5.0, 5.5 & 6.0, Post Graduate Levels 6.0, 6.5 & 7.0, and PhD Level 8] and for vocational education & training level 1 to level 8.

Under the National Credit Framework (NCrF) every learning can be creditised subject to its assessment. Under NCrF, the Credit levels to be assigned across school/ higher/ vocational education/ skilling, (independent of the streams, subjects etc) will be based on the cumulative numbers of years of learning with assessment. For earning credits, the course/ qualification should be qualification framework aligned and approved with a defined NCrF level and clearly describing the desired competency and learning outcome expected. Also the learning outcome shall be assessed after completing the course/ qualification for assignment of credits.

NCrF recognises no hard separation between different areas of learning, i.e. arts and sciences, vocational and academic streams, curricular and extra-curricular for the purpose of assignment of credits and credit levels. In the true spirit of National Education Policy 2020, the total learning hours can be creditised,subject to assessment, and may include class room teaching/ learning, laboratory work/ innovation labs/ class projects/ assignments/ tutorials; sports and games, yoga, physical activities, performing arts, music, handicraft work, social work, NCC, bag less days; examinations/ class tests/ quizzes/ assessments; vocational education, training and skilling, minor/ major project work/ field visits in skill education as well as on the job training / internship/ apprenticeship/ Experiential learning including relevant experience and professional levels acquired etc. Such an approach would also close the gap in achievement of learning outcomes by shifting the classroom
