AICTE

The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) primarily focuses on regulating technical education in India. However, its role has expanded over time.

In arts colleges, AICTE's involvement is typically seen when these colleges offer:

1. Management courses (like MBA, BBA)
2. Computer applications (like MCA, BCA)
3. Other professional/technical programs

AICTE ensures these programs meet certain standards, approving courses and monitoring quality. Colleges need AICTE approval for:

1. Starting new technical/professional courses
2. Increasing intake capacity
3. Ensuring faculty and infrastructure meet norms

Here's the AICTE status update in a paragraph format: Azharul Uloom College is pleased to announce that it has received Extension of Approval (EOA) from AICTE for the academic year 2024-25 for the courses Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) and Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA). The college has applied for EOA for the year 2025-26 and is awaiting approval. Currently, the teacher's portal is being updated with PAN card credentials, and the college is taking necessary steps to ensure compliance with AICTE norms and enhance the quality of technical education.
