I proudly saying that this refresher course is well organized course. I have already attended three courses. But this course is very special to me. A wide range of topics was selected. Many experts from all over India. From very young scientist to senior professors in Geology. UGC – HRDC, Kumaun University also invited experts from Geography and allied subjects too. Topic selection is excellent. The key speakers and experts covered from basic concept, Fundamentals and advanced topics also covered. I really wondered about the many topics related to Himalayan Geology. Remote sensing topics and Geophysics and Geochemistry, Geomorpholoy are also very interesting. DST expert came and gave a very good interaction session related to various funding for research. I personally feel that the last 14 days are very much useful. I got more knowledge and I am forcing to learn more and more to teach well in e upcoming days.

I am really thankful to the entire team of UGC HRDC, Kumaon University for such an engaging Faculty Induction Programme-15. We got an opportunity to learn and share various less known perspectives of teaching. Though I come from a technical background being a researcher of numerical simulation, I improved my understanding through technical sessions. I recommend forthcoming faculties of different Institutions of India to join the FIP of Kumaon University.

With very positive feedback, I joined the HRDC course of Kumaun University, Nainital, and coming to the end of the course, I can vouch that no other University has handled the Faculty Induction Program so well. These past 30 days of the program have been very rigorous and taxing, but at the same time, very enriching and insightful. I have learned so much from the eminent speakers of the varied session and I would not be wrong if I say that I will be taking a wealth of knowledge, experience, and good memories with me. The Director, HRDC, Prof. Divya U. Joshi Ma'am, and the Assistant Director Dr. Reetesh Sah Sir has been our torchbearer and have led us throughout this entire course with their affectionateness and strictness at the same time. They have been very kind, generous, and considerate towards all the participants. Given the task and responsibility of conducting the session for each participant, every day added the value of worthiness to each individual. Although the lack of physical connection is always there in an online course, this course was no less leaving an impact on our minds positively and happily. I am thankful to the esteemed team of the HRDC for organizing the program so well in a coordinated manner and helping us to be empowered as a teacher in every way possible. Hoping to get the opportunity to visit the beautiful place, Nainital, and attend some offline courses from this esteemed university.

HRDC Nainital has due care about our needs and requirements for this course. They have invited the best, eminent, and specialist resource person from various fields for the different sessions. We were feeling like every day is a new day/ fresh day with a new topic, with a new resource person with new ideas. We feel very energetic, motivated, and encouraged by listening to all the resource persons otherwise it is not easy to listen to everyone from 10:15 to 4: 30 even sometimes beyond 5:00 pm regular for 30 days. It is all because HRDC Nainital had given every day a new taste for us so that this program has been completed successfully. Moreover, Honorable Director madam and respected Deputy Director Sir were very cooperative, humble, polite, supportive, and kind during the whole course. All their best qualities have made us energetic, motivated, and encouraged throughout the whole course. My Best wishes are always for HRDC Nainital.
