Distance Education
CIEFL (now EFL University) was one of the first institutions in the country to start distance mode education. The University offers two teacher-training programmes, Post-Graduate Certificate in the Teaching of English (PGCTE) and Post-Graduate Diploma in the Teaching of English (PGDTE). This year, the University is launching an M.A. programme in English through the distance mode.
Compulsory contact programmes are a feature of all the distance - mode programmes offered by the university. They are held at Hyderabad and sometimes at other places too within India. Apart from the final evaluation, all the programmes also have internal assessment, which is based on the assignments you are required to do during the programme. The number of assignments and the period of the contact programme vary from programme to programme.
Self-instructional materials are provided for the PGCTE and PGDTE programmes. Materials for the research programmes are custom-made to suit the needs of the researchers. Research scholars have to attend contact programmes both during coursework and during thesis writing.
The School offers the following programmes:
M.A.
Post-Graduate Certificate in the Teaching of English (PGCTE)
Post Graduate Diploma in the Teaching of English (PGDTE)
