ATAL FDP Proposal Submission: A Complete Guide for Institutions

Submitting a proposal for an ATAL Faculty Development Program (FDP) is a critical step for institutions that want to host impactful training sessions for educators. The ATAL FDP proposal submission process, managed by AICTE, ensures that faculty members across the country get access to the latest teaching methodologies and technologies. In this article, we explain the entire submission process clearly for institutions planning to apply.

Step 1: Understand AICTE Guidelines

Before preparing the proposal, institutions must thoroughly review the AICTE ATAL FDP guidelines. These include:

• Eligibility criteria for institutions
• Priority subject areas for FDPs
• Funding details and responsibilities
• Duration and structure of the program

👉 You can access the official guidelines directly on the AICTE ATAL Academy website.

Step 2: Draft the Proposal

A strong proposal should include:

• Title of the FDP
• Objectives and outcomes
• Tentative schedule and session plan
• Resource persons (with profiles)
• Infrastructure and facilities available
• Budget requirements

Institutions should highlight how the FDP will benefit faculty members and align with the vision of ATAL Academy.

Step 3: Upload the Proposal on ATAL Portal

Once the draft is ready, log in to the ATAL Academy portal using the institutional credentials. Under the “Proposal Submission” section, fill in the required fields and upload documents in PDF format.

Tip: Ensure all supporting documents, such as collaboration letters or NOCs, are included before submission.

Step 4: Track the Proposal Status

After uploading, institutions can track the ATAL FDP proposal submission status directly from the portal dashboard. AICTE may ask for clarifications, so timely responses are important.

If approved, the institution will receive official confirmation and guidelines for conducting the FDP.
