CBSE Declares STEM Education as the Theme for 2025 Training Programs

In a landmark move, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has declared STEM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) as the focal theme for its 2025 annual training programs. This initiative highlights the increasing importance of STEM disciplines in equipping students with the skills needed for a future driven by technology. According to CBSE Chairman Rahul Singh, integrating STEM education will enhance critical thinking, problem-solving, and innovation, ensuring students are better prepared for emerging career opportunities.

Empowering Educators: CBSE & IIT Gandhinagar's 3030 Eklavya STEM Series

To strengthen STEM learning, CBSE has partnered with IIT Gandhinagar to launch the 3030 Eklavya STEM education online series. This initiative offers subject teachers up to 30 hours of Continuous Professional Development (CPD) training. The program, structured into 10 interactive sessions, includes:

• Hands-on STEM activities
• Thought-provoking questions and assignments
• Live interactive lectures and expert insights

The goal is to help educators integrate STEM methodologies into classrooms, making learning more engaging and application-driven.

Capacity Building for Future-Ready Teaching

CBSE is taking a multi-dimensional approach to enhance teaching methodologies in STEM. Alongside its annual teacher training programs, the board will conduct specialized Capacity Building Programmes (CBPs) to ensure educators are well-equipped to teach STEM effectively.

Key Features of the 3030 Eklavya STEM Program

• The first session aired on January 26, with new episodes scheduled every Sunday at 4 PM
• Sessions are available on the CCL YouTube channel for flexible learning
• Registration is open on the official website: eklavya.iitgandhinagar.ac.in

By encouraging interactive and practical learning, CBSE aims to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application in STEM fields.

Professional Recognition and Certification

Teachers who complete the 3030 Eklavya STEM program can earn:

• Certificate of Participation
• Certificate of Competency or Teacher Training (available for a nominal fee)

This initiative not only validates educators' professional growth but also underscores CBSE's commitment to high-quality STEM education.

Beyond STEM: CBSE's Holistic Support for Students

Apart from its focus on teacher training, CBSE is also prioritizing student well-being during board exams:

• Class 10 and 12 admit cards for 2025 released via Pariksha Sangam portal
• Board exams begin February 15
• Free psycho-social counseling available until April 4, 2025, ensuring mental well-being during exams
