The education ministry and the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) on Tuesday roped in 48 edtech firms to boost online education for students and executives and offer tech solutions to institutions.
The common platform will serve both the business-to-business and business-to-customer space in a varied field ranging from online courses to assessment, and from career support to coding, the regulator for professional courses said.
The move is part of the government’s strategy to open up virtual learning and increase technology adoption in higher education. Besides, it will offer a wider choice to students and executives and is aimed at creating an online education platform with both government and private players on board.
