From the next session, it is highly likely that PU will shift make a shift to e-degrees along with the diplomas, mark-sheets and migration certificates through online payment.
Parwinder Singh, Controller of Examinations, PU, said that PU has signed a legal document with the National Academic Depository (NAD).
“We have fixed a meeting with the authorities next week when we will give them the required data. We have created a NAD cell with three teams for the PU campus and its affiliated institutions in Punjab and Chandigarh,” said Singh.
NAD is an online repository of all academic awards which are digitized by the academic institutions. It is secure and any students can become a member using his/her unique ID. After becoming the member, he/she will not have to carry the documents physically.
“We are hopeful that PU will implement the process from 2018-19. The government has given us time till 2019 and will not be charging the students. Thereafter, they'll charge as per policy, which will not be too high. Training will start towards the end of January,” added Singh.
However, the procedure for obtaining the transcripts is still manual as confirmed by the Public Relations office of PU.
