IQAC has identified the following Distinctiveness & Best Practices in the colleges:

Enhancing global competencies through Skill developing

Enhancing global competencies through Skill developing

Objectives:

  1. To make the student able and compete by enhancing creativity and innovation
  2. To train the students in communication skills, soft skills, and practical skills
  3. To increase the employability of the students
  4. To enhance the overall academic performance
  5. To prepare the students for global competition
  6. To minimize the barrier between curricular and industry requirement
  7. To inculcate entrepreneurial skills among students
  8. To create awareness in environmental and social issues

The Context:

The huge paradigmatic shift in the global market has brought pressure and responsibilities on the educational institutions. The traditional educational system and its curriculum are found to be impractical and unemployable. There is a new concept of a global village that emerged because of globalization. Students from traditional colleges found it difficult to face the force of global competition. Considering the situation, the college embarked on enhancing the global skills and competencies which will enable the students to meet the new scenario by acquiring the employable and communicative skills.

The Practice:

The practice makes room for a group of teachers to voluntarily conduct different courses that provide training to students and equip them with a set of global skills like communication, soft skills and practical skills, necessary to compete in the global market. Teachers from different departments design the courses syllabi with the help of external academicians and industrial experts. The teacher put effort without remuneration besides the regular work. Nominal fees are collected from the students. Wide publicity is made among the students and they are stimulated to join the courses. While doing so, the importance of enhancement of skills and job opportunities are made explicit. The admission process is feasible for the students as installments in fee payments are made available for them. Besides the time table of said courses is made in such a way that teaching learning is not hampered. Teachers are conducting classes for different courses after admitting students to the courses. Also, different practical sessions are conducted to improve technical, communication as well as soft skills. For certain courses like community college special training is carried out in collaborating industries.

The following courses are run by the Institute

  1. Certificate Course in Functional English 2013
  2. Certificate Course in Management of Travel and Tourism 2013
  3. Certificate Course in Human Rights 2013
  4. Certificate Course in IncomeTax 2013
  5. Certificate Course in online Banking and Marketing
  6. Certificate Course in Mushroom Cultivation
  7. Rural Journalism

  9. Community College (Diploma in Industrial Pollution and Wastewater Treatment)
  10. Certificate Course vermi culture and Vermicomposting
  11. Remote Sensing
  12. Certificate course in R Software
  13. Digital Marketing

Evidence of success:

  1. A horizon of opportunities of employment is seen widened after completion of the courses
  2. Most of students get employment in local as well as multinational industries
  3. Few student have started their own business
  4. Students can market themselves effectively
  5. Student can identify their personal preferences, strengths and skills 6. Student can gain access to hidden employment market
  6. Student can create realistic plan for their continuing search for employment
  7. Students can develop soft skills that employers are looking for.
  8. Students are motivated for the environmental awareness

Problems Encountered and Resources Required:

  1. It is difficult to give admission to these courses to every aspirant.
  2. A fluctuation in global market is seen regarding with employment opportunities
  3. A shortage of expert trainers is experienced.
  4. Low accessibility to high end instruments and softwares

Most of the resources required are fulfilled by the college with the help of the parent institute.

Reforms in the selected villages through adoption

Goals:

  1. To bring awareness among the people about cleanliness and health
  2. To construct and repair the connecting roads and alleys
  3. To generate awareness on the gender issues and social issues like literarcy, sanitation, safe drinking water, etc
  4. To generate Environmental awareness
  5. To create awareness regarding watershed development and management
  6. To organise the check up camp for livestock
  7. To study the socioeconomic status of the villagers

The Context:

Though the college is situated in a semi-urban area, most of the students belong to the rural area. The college has always followed the path of visionaries like Mahatma Gandhi who states “India situates in the village”.Inspired by his statement, the NSS unit of the college took the initiative to bring the reforms in the selected villages in its neighborhood community by adopting that village for specific period. The college strived to reform these villages on the basis of the priorities of the changes required in that village and on the concept of a model village visualized in the following statement of the NIRDs: “ Village Adoption means to work along with the community at the grass root level, while enabling/empowering them for pursuing the goal of development of the village in line with the Sustainable Development Goals and learning as to what works and what doesn’t and evolve a model of village development for replication and training.”

The Practice:

In the above context, the NSS unit took responsibility of preparing the plan and selecting the village for this adoption. The priority of selecting a village is the backwardness of that village in terms of cleanliness, health and hygiene, environment consciousness, women empowerment, rainwater harvesting, irrigation, etc. Besides, the demand and willingness of the people of that village for voluntary participation. Accordingly, the NSS unit identified the basic requirements in the village Renawale in 2014 and Pogarwadi in 2015 and did the reformative activities for development in those villages in the respective years. The college also made tie-ups with certain NGO’s and Youth organizations in that villages to do activities in collaboration. In the year 2016, the Government of Maharashtra started a Munijan scheme of village adaptation and asked the universities to implement the scheme through the NSS units of the college. Accordingly, the college adopted the village Kushi in 2016 for the period of five years and the NSS unit of the college started doing the extension activities for reforms thereafter.

Distinctiveness of institutional performance in imbibing human values:

Lal Bahadur Shastri is a symbol of patriotism and bravery. He generated an immense respect for the contribution of jawans and kisans to the nation. Since Satara district is recognized for people’s contribution to defence services and agricultural initiatives in the Cooperative sector. This lecture series has acquired the distinctive identity in the society.

This two-day lecture series is organized on the 11th and 12th of January every year to memorize the death anniversary of Lal Bahadur Shastri and to celebrate the birth anniversary of Swami Vivekanand on these two days.
