Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Government of India, initiated National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) to design and develop the D.El.Ed Programme in ODL (Open Distance Learning) mode for un-trained yet in-service teachers at an elementary level. The D.EI.ED of NIOS has been approved by National Council of Teacher and Education (NCTE).
