Nursery Teacher Training (NTT)

To qualify under NCTE norms, a teacher-training institute must hold valid NCTE recognition or affiliation. You should check the official NCTE website's list of approved institutions or contact the institute to produce the recognition order they received. If the institute is missing from NCTE's current list, its NTT certification may not be valid for teaching recruitment in government or public schools that mandate NCTE-approved credentials. Always verify with school authorities or state education department before enrolling for further studies or applying for teaching posts.

In order to obtain your NTT certificate from Akhil Bharatiya Prem Devi Shikshan Prashikshan Sansthan, Kanpur (which we got in 1998) you should put in a direct call to the institute with information like your full name, the year of your pass out, name of the course, and any of your documents which you may have at your disposal like mark sheets or ID proof; if they ask for it put in a written application and pay the reissue fee, also out at that the institute was affiliated to any recognised board or council which may be required for additional verification.

Absolutely! A large number of NTT students are graduates who want to build a career in education or switch careers. But in my opinion if you already have a Bachelors degree then go for B.Ed as it opens more career opportunities. Being a graduate also opens up more growth opportunities after NTT, like pursuing B.Ed, D.El.Ed, or MA in Education later.

Of course, most NTT programs include practical training or internship in a preschool or nursery school as a compulsory component.

This includes Classroom observations, Assisting lead teachers, Conducting circle time, activities, rhymes, or storytelling sessions. It also includes Managing classroom discipline and child engagement, Creating and using teaching aids. 

Practical training helps build confidence, classroom handling skills and real-life teaching experience.

If you want to work in government primary schools  then D.El.Ed. + CTET is often preferred. But for private schools, PTT and NTT are widely accepted.
