Sister Nivedita Continuing Education Centre
Sister Nivedita Educational Complex believes that education is a lifelong process. Continuing Education
Centre is a centre for providing life-long education, a centre to provide alternate employment
opportunities for those who have not received complete education or formal education.
It aims to train people and provide them with skills that make them self-sufficient and capable of gaining
employment or starting a business of their own. The concept of continuing education is particularly
appropriate in a country like ours where a large number of people have been denied basic educational
facilities and even where such facilities exist, large numbers are unable to avail the same because of
socio-economic situations. We should therefore provide increasing opportunities for all adults to learn
according to their interest and needs and to ensure that every person has an opportunity to develop his
talent and is not deprived of facilities on account of his failure to go through the formal education
system at one stage or another.
The aim of this centre is:
To develop and use learning resources from the community as a whole and facilitate learning
through experience.
To transform schools and other such educational institutions into ‘human development
laboratories’. Encourage creativity.
To study the need of the various sections of society and students to develop need based
schemes of education.
To provide facilities to help bridge the gap between the educated and the uneducated.
To promote innovative education projects
To provide means for discussion groups, seminars, symposia, study circles, etc.
