BENGALURU: A government-aided polytechnic from Bagalkot has inspired Uganda to open polytechnic institutions in rural areas of the African nation. It was impressed by BVVS Polytechnic Community College’s digitisation programme and emphasis on practical training.
Referring to the recent visit of Uganda’s deputy prime minister AM Kirunda Kivejinja to BVVS polytechnic, department of technical education director HU Talwar said, “The college has digitized its services, from admission to attendance.
Even certificates and degrees are available online.” The polytechnic’s community model, too, played a part in influencing the Ugandan government. BVVS representatives have been invited to visit the African nation and help it to set up community and technical training colleges.
