Calling it a “remarkable milestone,” the UGC chairman Mamidala Jagadesh Kumar said, “We have achieved a remarkable milestone with over 1 Cr. student registrations in ABC, marking a significant stride towards an adaptable & flexible credit system in India.”
The Academic Bank of Credits was introduced with National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. ABC is a virtual/digital storehouse that is a centralised repository housing the comprehensive credit records of individual students as they progress through their educational journey. This cutting-edge system empowers students to access their accounts seamlessly and offers a plethora of choices when it comes to transitioning between different colleges or universities.
“The University Grants Commission expresses gratitude to all the students and higher education institutions for their registration in the Academic Bank of Credit (ABC). We have achieved a remarkable milestone with over one crore student registrations in ABC, marking a significant stride towards an adaptable and flexible credit-system in India,” said the UGC chief.
