Teachers Internship Program Scheme (TIPS)

Introduction

The Teachers Internship Program Scheme (TIPS) aims to cater to reversible needs for both academic institutes and individual interns. Being in academia for more than 10 years, it has realized that there is an actual scarcity of good professional teachers despite having thousands of degree holders available around. It is not that an individual does not want to be a good teacher, but a fresh degree holder never gets the best environment to learn how to be best in the sector. It has been also felt that most of the colleges providing degrees in education are not so serious about it generating unemployment or underemployment. There are plenty of high-paying opportunities waiting for trained or experienced individuals. Realizing the exact needs of now growing this service base, the educational industry needs a special kind of trained people. Two-way benefits have been thought here that interns for a year may get the best training with Fellowship for Internship as a Teacher would be known as a FIT Fellow, and a FIT fellow may help the institute with various suitable jobs to improve its academic program. At the end of training FIT fellows will be getting high-value certificates and as many opportunities on their sleeves.
