\nDibrugarh University’s (DU) IQAC Director Dr K Bhuyan presented a paper on ‘Best practices in higher education’, incorporating his experiences during the accreditation process in DU.
\nHe highlighted the importance of benchmarking, and elucidated the best practices in the process of benchmarking for quality enhancement by adopting five strategies – “identification, implementation, institutionalization, internalization, and dissemination of best practices.”
\nIGGC Principal Dr Kangki Megu dwelt on his experiences at RF College, Changlang, and the outcomes of various workshops sponsored by the NAAC, and compared the assessment and accreditation profiles of different institutions of the country.
\nHe emphasized that the higher education institutions should “strive to fulfill the mission and vision for which they have been established.”
