I am extremely happy to note that the UGC-Human Resource Development Centre, Karnatak University, Dharwad is annually bringing out ‘About Us’ – a booklet of their activities, assessment, feedback for open scrutiny for the year 2017-18.

This in my opinion is a matter of accountability which every public institution should be involved in. As a stakeholder of these public institutions, their knowhow about these institutions and their functioning is a must. Apart the Website they have, the UGC-HRDC persuades people to write for their ‘HR Stream’ – a monthly magazine and annually brings out ‘About Us’. I wish more of University Institutions also believe in these progressive steps.

I wish UGC-Human Resource Development Centre the best.

UGC-Human Resource Development Centre, Karnatak University, Dharwad has been bringing out ‘About Us’ since 2015. The intension of this is to showcase ourselves in public the activities of our institutions and the opinions of our participants. This gives us an insight into the kind of activities that we are doing, its relevance and how we should plan ahead.

However we do not want to be satisfied only with this small step of self assessment in order to have our existence made relevant to the social needs through imparting Orientation Programmes, Refresher Courses, Short term courses, Summer/Winter School Programmes to teachers. We also propose to reach out to the stakeholders to lend ourselves for their scrutiny.

It is in this direction that we have brought this latest ‘About Us’ and sending it across to some of our friends and stakeholders at random.

As an experiment, we look forward to share their opinions, criticism, observations in the forthcoming ‘About Us’. We do believe that path to achievement lies in “only being the best” and this is our motto.

We look forward for your guidance.
Thanking you.
