Choice Based Credit System (C.B.C.S.)
The UGC has given the rationale for introduction of the Choice-Based Credit System (C.B.C.S.) which highlights important features such as: enhanced learning opportunities, ability to match learners’ scholastic needs and aspirations, inter-institution transferability of learners (following the completion of a semester), part-completion of an academic programme in the institution of enrolment and part completion in a specialized (and recognized) institution, improvement in educational quality and excellence, flexibility for working learners to complete the programme over an extended period of time, standardization and comparability of educational programmes across the country etc.
The C.B.C.S. represents a much-required change to a learner centric education and facilitates self-paced learning. It also provides more flexibility to the learners allowing them to choose interdisciplinary courses, change majors, programmes, etc. The system also facilitates learner mobility as credits earned at one institution can be transferred to another.
