If you are exploring Universities for pursuing Distance B.Ed course, then you must check for two basic approvals. Firstly, the university must be UGC recognised (through the Distance Education Bureau: DEB). Secondly, the B.Ed programme itself must be approved by the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) which is offered by many colleges and institutions. Students must note that there will always be a risk of your degree getting rejected if any institution offering Distance B.Ed does not match both the criteria. Your qualification for CTET, state TETs, and government school recruitment will be rejected without DEB and NCTE approval even if you have completed all exams and paid the full fee.​
