Titled 'Training Workshop on BAC Accreditation for Academic Programs,' ISU faculty members actively participated in the session.

Vice-Chancellor Dr. Abdul Awal Khan stated that through this workshop, teachers would be able to enhance their educational and professional capabilities, as well as gain an understanding of the standards set by the Bangladesh Accreditation Council (BAC). He emphasized that ISU is working to design its academic curriculum based on the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) approach, as directed by the University Grants Commission and BAC.

He further mentioned that there is no alternative to training for improving teaching quality. Strong communication skills are essential to building friendly teacher-student relationships, and teachers must play a key role in helping students build better lives.
