It is a privilege to extend a warm welcome to all educators and stakeholders associated with the UGC-Malaviya Mission Teacher Training Centre, Punjabi University, Patiala. Our Centre stands as a beacon of excellence, dedicated to the professional growth and holistic development of educators in India. Established in the spirit of the National Policy on Education, 1986, our mission has been to provide a dynamic platform for teachers to upgrade their knowledge, skills, and pedagogical approaches, preparing them to face the evolving challenges in the field of higher education.

Over the years, the Centre has emerged as a leader in fostering academic excellence, constantly adapting to the rapid advancements in education, technology, and mass communication. Our focus is on engaging educators with innovative and effective teaching methodologies, enabling them to inspire and guide their students with curiosity, wisdom, and passion. As Ever Garrison wisely said, "a teacher is a compass that activates the magnets of curiosity, knowledge, and wisdom in the pupils." We remain committed to bringing together some of the best intellectual minds and experts to facilitate the professional journey of our participants.

Our academic and administrative team is devoted to ensuring a supportive and enriching experience for all who engage with our programs. We greatly value feedback and suggestions that can help us explore new ideas and achieve our goal of educational excellence.

The UGC-Malaviya Mission Teacher Training Centre website serves as a hub for up-to-date information about our Faculty Induction Programmes, Refresher Courses, seminars, workshops, short-term courses, and various other initiatives aimed at professional enhancement.

I am honoured to lead this institution and look forward to continuing our journey towards excellence under the able leadership of our esteemed Vice-Chancellor. Together, we can make significant strides in empowering educators and advancing the standards of higher education in our country.

Warm regards,
Director
