ATAL Faculty Development Programme (FDP) 2025

The AICTE Training and Learning (ATAL) Faculty Development Programme has become one of the most recognized initiatives in India for enhancing faculty capabilities. While these programmes are organized independently, they set a benchmark in the field of academic training and are widely respected in institutional and accreditation frameworks.

At Scrollwell, we consistently inform faculty members about reputed development opportunities — including those aligned with national initiatives — while also offering curated FDPs designed for the modern educator.


Why ATAL FDPs Are Academically Significant

Participating in an ATAL FDP provides faculty members with exposure to high-quality training in emerging areas. These programmes cover a wide range of topics relevant to modern teaching, including:

  • Artificial Intelligence in Education
  • Digital Tools and EdTech
  • Research Methodology and Academic Writing
  • Entrepreneurship and Innovation
  • Environmental Sustainability
  • Data Science and Analytics

The focus is on practical application, interdisciplinary learning, and alignment with national education policies like NEP 2020.


Certification and Recognition

Faculty who complete an ATAL FDP receive a faculty development programme certificate that is:

  • Valid for UGC Career Advancement Scheme (CAS)
  • Often accepted by institutions during NAAC/NBA assessments
  • Considered credible evidence of professional development

These certificates enhance an educator’s teaching profile and demonstrate a commitment to continuous learning.


How Faculty Access Such Programmes

While ATAL FDPs are conducted through national-level academies, registration is typically limited and competitive. Faculty members are advised to:

  • Stay updated through academic networks and trusted platforms like Scrollwell
  • Apply early due to limited seats
  • Choose topics aligned with their teaching or research interests

Scrollwell regularly updates and curates information about high-quality FDPs — including ATAL, UGC, and institution-led initiatives — allowing faculty members to make informed choices.


Scrollwell’s Role in Faculty Development

Beyond merely listing programmes, Scrollwell offers:

  • Expert-led FDPs with practical outcomes
  • Workshops and training in digital tools, AI, and pedagogy
  • Institutional collaborations and capacity-building initiatives
  • Timely alerts for reputed programmes across India

Our goal is to support educators in accessing development opportunities that are both relevant and recognized.


Conclusion

The ATAL FDP is a well-respected model for structured academic training. While participation is subject to selection, faculty members benefit greatly from these programmes in terms of skill development and academic recognition. Platforms like Scrollwell aim to bridge the gap by regularly updating faculty about such opportunities while also offering independent FDPs tailored for 21st-century educators.
