Given that higher education plays a crucial role in the construction of a knowledgeable society, teaching, research
and related functions are fundamental to social and economic activities. Thus, higher education in India has
undergone a sea of changes and rapid expansion over the last six decades. This increase in the number of public
and private higher education institutions is in keeping with the stated objectives of improving access and equal
opportunities to a large and growing young population. The higher education sector, however, faces myriad
challenges as it tries to keep pace with an increasingly competitive and global higher education market. The
leadership capacity building and internationalized curricular reform initiatives proposed herein seek to help to
identify, address, and alleviate these challenges.
While it is true that higher education institutions are complex enterprises, in the case of India it is even more
challenging given the scale, size and complexities of the Country and its systems. Management of higher education
institutions requires deep understanding, knowledge, skills and experience in leading institutions. Broadly, the
management of institutions focuses on a range of issues that require focused, ongoing professional expertise
development. To build the capacities of existing higher education leaders and administrators and to draw fresh
talent into the management of higher education systems, TISS in 2016 administered training programs for Higher
Education (HE) leaders through a leadership academy, the HELA (Higher Education Leadership Academy) under
the component Leadership Management.
RUSA state bodies selected over 612 higher education leaders from 23 states and 4 UTs to attend HELA
workshops. The participants included: (1) vice chancellors (VCs), Pro-VCs, higher education policy makers,
senior higher education leaders and administrators such as State Higher Education Council Chairperson and
Principal Secretaries (2) deans, chairpersons and heads of departments, (3) college principals and vice-principals
(4) registrars, finance officers, controller of exams, Director of the Board of University and College Development
(5) officials from the State Higher Education Department, State Higher Education Council, State Project
Directorate, and Chancellor’s Office (6) members of university statutory bodies such as Academic Council,
Executive Council, Senate and Board of Studies.
There has been an overwhelmingly positive response from the participants both during and after the sessions in
which they participated. A comprehensive report with detailed information on the Higher Education Leadership
Forums has been appended.
Higher Education Leadership Academy Under Rashtriya Uchchatar Shiksha Abhiyan, Report 2016-17
Introduction:
Higher education in India has undergone sea changes and rapid expansion over the last six decades. This sector
has seen the rise of diverse set of institutions both in the public and the private space. Obviously, the increase in
the number of institutions is in keeping with the stated objectives of improving access and equal opportunities to
a large young population. Given that higher education plays a very important role towards the construction of
knowledge society, teaching, research and related functions are fundamental to social and economic activities.
In an increasingly competitive and global era higher education institutions are today facing enormous amount of
challenges.
While it is true that higher education institutions are in general complex enterprises, in case of India it is even
more challenging given its scale, size and complexities. The management of these higher education institutions
are quite extraordinary. This requires deep understanding, knowledge, skills and experience in leading and
managing institutions. Broadly, the management of institutions focuses on a range of issues where professional
expertise is desirable. To build capacities of existing higher education leaders and administrators and to draw
fresh talent into the management of higher education systems, it is proposed to administer training programs for
Higher Education (HE) leaders through a leadership academy, the HELA (Higher Education Leadership
Academy).
Leadership development program will be the major activity and focus of the HELA. However, we believe that
supplementing leadership development with activities such as research on topical issues in HE, research-based
policy advocacy and promotion of networking among HE leaders and actors can generate a more decisive and
holistic impact on the advancement of leadership of HE institutions, as well as on the quality and performance
of HE institutions and the overall advancement of HE in India. Therefore, in addition to offering leadership
RUSA Capacity Building and Leadership Management Report, 2016-2017
development program the HELA will also carry out activities such as research on HE, research-based advocacy
and promotion of networking among HE actors and leaders.
Objectives of the Leadership Forum:
Develop the capacity, in terms of governance and leadership abilities, of Higher Education (HE) leaders and
to develop excellent HE administrators and leaders
Carry out and disseminate research that can serve to inform and influence decision making in HE
institutions and policy making, planning and governance with respect to the field of HE
Formulate and advocate research based policy suggestions for the advancement of HE in India and to
contribute to the strengthening of macro level HE policy
Serve as a platform for sharing ideas and suggestions on improving HE in India and promote networking
and mutual learning among leaders and actors in the field of H.E.
The main goal of the leadership development activities of HELA would be to equip HE leaders and
administrators to competently and efficiently handle the complex problems and leadership challenges that arise
in the academic, financial and administrative aspects of the functioning of their respective institutions, so that
they can lead and manage institutions of higher learning in a more effective manner.
The specific objectives of the leadership development program would be to:
1. Adapt leadership and management practices to changing world of work.
2. Identify positive and negative examples of leadership and management practices
3. Address common leadership and management challenges.
4. Develop critical leadership competencies and skills for effective organizational efficiency.
5. Develop interpersonal competencies, improve organizational effectiveness and develop personal
characteristics for leaders and administrators.
6. To lead and support the diverse workforce, promote team work and create positive working
relationship throughout the institution, improve staff performance and efficiency, improve work
processes to enhance efficiency and effectiveness of the organization, use creativity and innovation to
meet current and future leadership challenges.
7. Develop critical thinking, judgment and problem solving abilities.
Methodology:
The Resource Persons (trainers) of the leadership training program will be leading academics, scholars,
academic administrators and leaders, and management experts both from India and abroad. These experts will
bring to the training strong knowledge base on conceptual issues and practitioners’ perspective.
The program will be delivered through an integrated teaching and learning method involving case studies, group
activities, field visits and online virtual sessions. The focus will not be only conceptual or theoretical but also
practical and participatory: participants of leadership development program will be required to apply the learnt
skills in simulated situations and identify actual leadership and management problems in their respective
institutions and come up with possible solutions to these problems, as part of the assignments in these programs.
The content to be delivered in the program would be informed and shaped by the cutting edge HE researches of
this HE leadership academy. The program durations offered will be 4 weeks, 2 weeks, one week and 2 days. In
future, immersion program and exposure visits will also form a part of the training and a Professional
Experience Plan, developed by the participant and his/her mentor, is to be carried out in their homes or
conveniently located campus.
Evaluation mechanisms will be built into the actual leadership development programs of HELA. At the end of
every program me, detailed questionnaires will be given to participants to obtain their feedback on the quality
and relevance of the content and delivery of the program. Such feedback, along with oral suggestions also
gleaned from participants during the program, will be used to refine and further develop the future content,
structure and delivery of the leadership development program.
Levels:
The leadership program provided will be customized according to 6 leadership levels/groups: (1) For Vice
Chancellors, Pro-VCs, HE policy makers, Senior HE leaders and administrators such as State Higher Education
Council Chairperson and Principal Secretary (2) For Deans, Chairpersons and Heads of Departments, (3)
College Principals and Vice-Principals (4) For Registrars, Finance Officers, Controller of Exams, Director of
Board of University and College Development (5) Officials from State Higher Education Department, State

Qualitative Feedback
5.a. Key Implementation
1. Establishing an effective MIS in exercising SHEC functions.
2. To bring functional transparencies.
3. To develop a sense of competitiveness among institutions to ensure good overall growth.
4. To introduce state ranking of Higher Education institution and Academic Audit to develop a sense
of competition among the institution to ensure overall growth in higher education in the state.
5. To undertake reforms in – Governance, Academic, affiliation, examination of the state Higher
Education through the intervention of SHEC and the institutional IQAC.
6. To install Bio-metric attendance for teachings, non-teachings faculty and students to ensure quality
education in higher education institution and Best practices under RUSA.
7. Strong and effective MIS.
8. IQAC in all Higher Education Institutions of the State.
9. Reforms in Governance, Affiliation, Examination and Academic field on State
10. Higher & Technical Education Department and Instructional level.
11. Strengthening of MIS and ICT system for effective implementation of CBCS, examination and
evaluation system
12. Will start vocational courses level 5&6 and B.Voc in some colleges as per NSQF
13. Strengthening quality assurance mechanisms in higher education institutions Instead of targeting
any problem as a whole let us go to the micro level let there be an ecosystem which facilitate
meaning expansion of HEIs in private sector as the Government can alone not address the issues of
equity Scarcity of quality teachers is the biggest issue. Attracting and retaining talented young into
teaching profession is the biggest challenge may be we thought that offering better remuneration
shall solve the issue but despite the best remuneration we failed to attract the best. There is a need
to look into the issue and explore other dimensions.
14. Consultation of Universities and Colleges with RUSA state project directorate as a ‘regular
feature’. This will help create a joint stake or onus of these reforms with institutions and not let it
remain with government alone. The discussion can be on stock taking of recent developments (like
lessons from other states) and also explore university best practices on either RUSA components
like IT platform, CBCS, IQACs, academic audits or indigenous innovations. This can be achieved
either by 'weekly' consultations of all universities for a 6-8 months (that Karnataka was able to
achieve) or by a Sate RUSA Consultation seminar with all stakeholders.
15. Pune University already has an IT platform which can be up-scaled on lines of ICT experience by
Karnataka's GyanaSangama, to create a common platform to integrate most functions and
processes in higher education system in a university and colleges.
16. Setting up IQACs in all colleges in the state at a war footing and making all universities lead this
quality assurance processes in all their affiliating colleges.
5.b.Key Learnings
1. To know the best practices in different implementation areas.
2. Opportunity to interact with other SHEC members.
3. RUSA thrust areas.
4. The experience sharing has given an opportunity to interact with the members of SHEC of the
other states. The proactive of the various state higher education council and regular meeting of
SHEC and officials from the Higher Education has greatly motivated.
5. The role of ICT has been thoroughly discussed and the contribution towards the developments of
higher education in the states is immense.
6. Best practices under RUSA Scheme introduced by various SHEC for quality education in the
higher Education are commendable.
7. A very active SHEC with more meetings will be fruitful for the development of Higher Education
in the State 8. Now we know what are the best practices in RUSA and other field of Higher
education.
8. ICT have a great role in the development of Higher Education Institutions in the State.
9. Came to know as how preparatory grant can be utilised like ICT initiatives in Karnataka, student
coaching by Chandigarh & Gujrat etc.
10. Vocationalization of higher education.
11. Sharing of practices and problems with members of other states.
12. This forum has provided me with a wonderful opportunity to interact with persons holding
leadership positions in higher education system. Let us begin with creation of a shared Vision and
Mission as success is always synergy. We need to initiate a debate and discussion at all level
involving all stakeholders so that we would be able to arrive at consensus and put in a coordinated
effort to resolve issues Every one of us working in our own water tight compartment often
unaware of the wonderful solutions available with the our neighbour let us identify the best
practices and indulge ourselves in reinvention of wheel.
13. There is a need to bring all stakeholders including various Universities, Colleges and Government
functionaries on board to be able to take RUSA mission, vision and governance reforms down to
every student and teacher in HEIs.
14. This was demonstrated by many states like Mizoram (through sensitizing workshops) and
Karnataka (using ICT and meeting universities every week for 8 months initiated by the Add.
Chief Secretary).
15. It was interesting to learn best practices of many states like active SHECs (West Bengal),
incentive schemes for students and 94% accreditation (Goa) and use of ICT as a complete solution
(Karnataka) and creating a well drafted SHEC act after studying acts of other states (Jharkand)
and many such more practices. There is however a need to further understand the processes with
the states that enabled them to achieve these results.
16. There are some common challenges across states like - lack of faculty and filling up of teaching
and non-teaching positions; Pondicherry is a case in point where there is a high GER of 41% with
69 institutions for every lakh population but pass out rate of students and their employability is
very poor and low. To note, education is totally free in this UT from nursery to higher education.
It means that universities and colleges have to innovate their pedagogy, curriculums, facilities and
skill imparting to retain students and make them highly skilled and employable and not just
depend on GER as an outcome indicator.
