3 mins readUpdated on Jan 23, 2021 04:14 IST

We are all well aware of the saying that “Knowledge is power”. Yes, it is so true. Knowledge is a weapon that could revolutionise the world. The number of educational institutions that are being established is increasing year by year. This simply signifies the growing importance of education. But merely acquiring a degree or a diploma from any university doesn’t make any difference. The value of your education lies in qualifying for the best university. 

The quality of education offered by an institute and its reputation is generally measured using accreditation or the ranking system. Let us get to know a bit more about these two terms. Ranking processes of the institutes are carried out on an annual basis to reflect upon the performance of an institute. The ranking is open to all colleges. The NIRF ranking helps to determine the position of a college as compared to other institutes within the national level.

There involve lengthy and cumbersome procedures on the part of the institutes which have to be met to be granted a NAAC or NBA accreditation.
