Arun Rajamani, Managing Director, Cambridge University Press & Assessment, South Asia, said: \u201cLast year has been incredibly challenging for teachers across the world. It has highlighted the need for a well-rounded and need-based development program that bridges the gap between the existing and new-age blended teaching and learning techniques. We have developed the Cambridge Professional Development Programme (Cambridge PDP) to address this need. At Cambridge, we believe that teachers are central to high-quality pedagogy, high attainment, and the well-being of learners. And we are sure that Cambridge PDP will be a key stepping stone in the professional development journey of educators in India and beyond. The course marks an important step for Cambridge in our commitment to improving the skills and expertise of educators in India.\u201d<\/p>\n

Manish Doshi, Senior Vice President & Business Head \u2013 Education, Cambridge University Press & Assessment said: \u201cInspired by the NEP 2020 vision and an understanding of the challenges faced by schools, Cambridge has created a PD course to help schools excel. While there is awareness of pedagogies within the teaching community, the real challenge has always been every day implementation and constraints such as disproportionate teacher-pupil ratios and limited infrastructure. Cambridge PDP is our response to what we felt was an urgent need to design a program that supports teachers in adapting and finding innovative responses to these challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n
