Tribhuvan University has approved a human resource development programme for fiscal year 2083/084, with in-service and induction training planned for 775 teachers and staff across the university. The annual programme and its budget were endorsed at a meeting of the university’s Human Resource Development and Welfare Council, organised by the Coordination Division. Training is to be delivered under nine headings, although the available reports do not detail each training area.
Programme approval and intended participants
The approved programme is aimed at both teachers and other university staff. Its two stated forms of training are in-service training and induction training. The first is for personnel already working at the university, while induction training is intended for staff entering their roles. The university has set a total target of 775 participants for the fiscal year.
The annual meeting of the Human Resource Development and Welfare Council reviewed and approved the programme and budget for 2083/084. The Coordination Division organised the meeting. The approval provides an annual framework for the planned training, but the reports do not specify a schedule, participant breakdown by job category, venue, or the contents of the nine headings.
The plan brings the university’s staff development activities together under a single annual programme. Its focus, as described in the reports, is training for university personnel rather than a change to academic courses or student admissions. The available information does not say whether the 775 places will be divided equally between teachers and other staff, or how participants will be selected.
Budget figures differ in reports
The amount allocated to the programme is not consistent across published accounts. Some reports put the budget at Rs 12.5 million, while others cite Rs 11.2 million. The discrepancy leaves the precise approved allocation unclear from the available reporting.
The Nagarik News report, Khabarhub report and Ratopati report cover the university’s training plan, but the figures cited in coverage vary. The difference should be resolved against the university’s approved budget document before the amount is treated as definitive.
The discrepancy matters because the allocation is the financial basis for carrying out a programme that is expected to reach hundreds of personnel. Until the university’s official budget figure is confirmed, the clearest points are that the council approved an annual programme for 2083/084 and that training is planned for 775 teachers and staff under nine headings.
Training planned under nine headings
The nine-heading structure indicates that the programme is intended to cover several areas of staff development, but the reports do not name those areas. They also do not describe the duration or format of the sessions, the number of training rounds, or whether all participants will receive the same type of instruction. Those details were not available in the published information about the approval.
The approved plan sets out the university’s stated training target for the fiscal year. Further information from the university would clarify how the 775 places will be distributed, what each of the nine headings covers, when the sessions will take place and which budget figure was formally approved. For now, the decision marks the approval of a university-wide human resource development programme, with both in-service and induction training included in its scope.
