| IGNOU makes it mandatory for students seeking fresh admission to create DEB ID | | |  Early Times Report
JAMMU, Jan 3: The Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) has released the guidelines for creating a DEB (Distance Education Bureau) ID. DEB ID is a mandatory step for students who wish to enrol in an ODL/Online programme at the university. The university notified that DEB ID shall be created by all learners as per the UGC guidelines. The DEB ID is a unique number which will be provided by the University to each student seeking admission in the University for ODL as well as Online programmes. The admission portal of IGNOU is already open till January 31, 2025 and can be accessed on https://ignouadmission.samarth.edu.in/.
The UGC mandates every student enrolling into online and distance education courses to register for DEB ID. Students who are planning to apply for any of the IGNOU programmes are now required to create a DEB ID at the time of admission. DEB ID is helpful when students plan to change their university and transfer their accumulated credits to the new university. Students who have dropped out of their course can continue from where they left off within 7 years of their dropout year, if they have a valid DEB ID.
Students first need to register for the Academic Bank of Credit (ABC ID), then use it to create their DEB ID. This is an initiative of the Ministry of Education, Govt. of India, with a sole purpose of creating a digital medium for students for their academic credits. This system is beneficial for those students who need to change their college after one or two years, or even those who drop-out of college and decide to take re-admission after some time. The Academic Bank of Credit system is a digital credit storage system where with every semester, candidates can store their earned credit and use this later on, if required. It is worth noting that the ABC system is not only useful for storing credit, but it also works as a mode of student verification, maintaining an authentic and confidential way to manage student credits.
"The purpose of the DEB-ID is to ensure that students are taking admission in the Open and Distance Learning/Online programmes of the Higher Educational Institutes which are recognized by the UGC", said Dr. Sandeep Gupta, Regional Director, Regional Centre Jammu. |
