In order to facilitate a comprehensive understanding of the National Credit Framework (NCrF) and its implementation within the CBSE education system, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has requested the participation of representatives from all affiliated schools. These representatives can be principals, headmasters, headmistresses, or dedicated teachers with an interest in educational innovation and curriculum development.
CBSE acknowledges the important role and responsibilities of school heads. In case of schools where the heads are overseeing Board examinations, alternative arrangements can be made should their full attendance pose a challenge. In such instances, CBSE encourages the nomination of an appropriate representative from the school who can actively engage in the workshops and share the valuable insights gained with the wider school community.
With regard to this, Department of Skill Education, CBSE will organize a series of awareness programmess on National Credit Framework (NCrF) for the Principals/Headmaster/ Headmistress/Teachers of CBSE affiliated schools, as per the below schedule.

By encouraging active participation from all levels of school leadership and faculty, CBSE aims to foster a collaborative environment where educators can collectively explore the opportunities and implications of the NCrF. This will not only equip them with in-depth knowledge of the framework but also empower them to effectively guide their students towards navigating the dynamic educational landscape within the framework of the NEP.
In alignment with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020’s vision of fostering a more holistic and impactful educational experience, the National Credit Framework (NCrF) has been meticulously developed. This comprehensive framework transcends traditional boundaries by seamlessly integrating academic and vocational education. It empowers learners with vertical and horizontal mobility, enabling them to effortlessly navigate between and within these streams.
The NCrF acts as a comprehensive crediting system, encompassing not only academic knowledge and vocational skills, but also acknowledging the valuable lessons gleaned from experiential learning. This encompasses relevant work experience, highlighting the significance of practical application, and professional proficiency/levels acquired, recognizing the expertise gained through on-the-job training and experience. By comprehensively crediting these diverse learning aspects, the NCrF fosters a holistic approach to education, recognizing the multifaceted development of students and learners.
In essence, the NCrF serves as a bridge between academic and vocational education, fostering flexibility and adaptability in learner pathways. It empowers individuals to chart their own educational journeys, tailoring their learning experiences to their specific goals and aspirations. This increased mobility allows them to seamlessly navigate the educational landscape, maximizing their potential and paving the way for a fulfilling career path.
