Recognized Regional Centres
Updated on 23 Jan, 2023
IGNOU – ARMY, NAVY, ASSAM RIFLES EDUCATION PROJECT
IGNOU has entered into a collaboration with the Army, Navy and Assam Rifles (AR) for providing educational opportunities through an Education Project termed as, IGNOU Army Education Project (IAEP), IGNOU Navy Education Project (INEP) and IGNOU Assam Rifles Education Project (IAREP).Under this project, IGNOU has extended the outreach of its academic programmes to the defence personnel and their families on a single window basis. IGNOU has signed MoUs with Army, Navy and Assam Rifles on 9th April 1999, 22nd March 2000 and 20th April 2002, respectively. The collaborative enterprise of IGNOU with the service personnel facilitates provision of educational opportunities without dislocating the enrolled learners from their units, except for academic counseling and Term end examinations. 11 Recognized Regional Centres (RRC) have been established in six Army HQ Commands, four Naval Commands and one in DGAR Assam Rifles (AR).
The 11 RRC established under Army, Navy and Assam Rifles are as follows:
