You can now see the breakdown

CPD Day Points

A total of 3 points in a semester hence, one will get 6 points for this at the end of the two semesters.

These are days observed as CPD Days

CPD Days will be organised by Metro/Municipal or District Directors ones in a Year to award the Points.

But this year, the NTC Will Organised Sexual Harassments awareness and Prevention Course to award 3 CPD Points for CDP Day for the first semester.

The CPD Day in Semester 2 for this year will also be organised by NTC on Digital Literacy for 3 CPD Points

PLC

Each Semester PLC Session gives you 3 Points, hence for the two semesters you get 6 Points.

if PLC sessions are 13 in semesters the Points will be 3/13 for each session thus 0.23. so someone who attends only 7 sessions will acquire only 7 x 0.23 about 1.6 points out of the 3 points for the semester.

The PLC points are awarded weekly by the Station manager.

Data required to Award points include the person being there and signing the attendance sheet, the sheet will be uploaded into the portal for further confirmation before the award of marks.

These trainings are training mostly conducted by certified service providers, eg; NTC, T-Tel, UCC, teacher Unions( GNAT, NAGRAT, CCT-GH, Education Office, UEW, etc. The list of certified Service providers can be obtained from the website of the NTC.

This Targeted training gives you 2 Points per semester.  hence for the two semesters, you get 4 Points.

Some training will include Digital literacy, Sexual harassment awareness, and Prevention, etc.

This training also gives 2 CPD Points per semester with a total of 4 Points for the two semesters.

Training initiated by Yourself to help you understand something better, or by SISO, Head, Education office, etc depending on the training need of the Teacher.

So each semester you are to obtain 10 CPDs, with a total of 20 NCPDs by the end of the two semesters or the Academic Year.

60 NCPD at the End of the 3 Years for license renewal.
