ATAL FDP NOC Form: A Complete Guide for Faculty
The ATAL Faculty Development Program (FDP) requires a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the institution to confirm a faculty member’s eligibility and availability. Understanding how to correctly prepare and submit the ATAL FDP NOC form is crucial for a successful application.
What is the ATAL FDP NOC Form?
The NOC form is an official document signed by the head of an institution granting permission to a faculty member to participate in an ATAL FDP. It assures the AICTE that the participant will be relieved from teaching duties during the program.
Why is the NOC Form Important?
Without a valid NOC, applications for ATAL FDPs are often rejected. This document:
- Confirms your institution’s support.
- Ensures smooth scheduling during your FDP participation.
- Demonstrates compliance with AICTE guidelines.
How to Fill the ATAL FDP NOC Form
Step-by-step process:
- Download the NOC format from the ATAL AICTE portal.
- Fill in your details such as name, designation, department, and institution.
- Specify the FDP details including title, dates, and location.
- Get approval from your Head of Department and Principal/Director.
- Sign, stamp, and scan the form before uploading it to the ATAL portal.
