Explaining the process, Director of IGNOU’s Defence Unit revealed that the varsity recognises the achievements of defence personnel during their service period. Later, the varsity equates these achievements to the standards of IGNOU and transfers them credits. Through this process, the varsity is encouraging defence personnel to take up various courses for a lateral entry.

The varsity launched three schemes in the year 2009 including: -

  • Akashdeep
  • Sagardeep
  • Gyandeep

Out of these, the ‘Akashdeep’ and ‘Gyandeep’ schemes have turned out to be very successful. ‘Sagardeep’ scheme, on the other hand, has not received much response from the personnel of Indian Navy. There were not many applicants under this scheme.

IGNOU has always been in news for its exceptional programmes and schemes. It has been constantly trying to offer a varied range of programmes. For this purpose, the varsity has also collaborated with various organisations.
