Assam Baptist Convention Community College

VISION:
Empower and equip the young people.
CONCEPT:
Assam and North –East India as a whole are far away from the Indian mainland and opportunities are very less for meaningful and gainful employment. The youths by and large are very frustrated.While the educated youths have some form of opportunity, it is the school/dropouts who are the worst sufferers. They have been lured by anti –social elements and have become vulnerable to evil habits and ways that destroy them. These groups of young people have become a matter of concern for the society in general.

The Community College concept is an alternative system of education aimed at helping the poor urban, rural, tribal and women to find gainful empowerment in collaborations with the local industries and the Community. The system is of the Community, for the Community, and by the Community to produce responsible citizens. The Community College promotes job oriented, work related, skill based and life coping education.
The Assam Baptist Convention would like to target this vulnerable group, and in a very humble and special way would like to give a meaningful direction to their lives, and at the same time encourage, agencies,individuals to come forward and make this a movement for transformation.

ACADEMIC STANDARDS
From the beginning (2012) of the Academic year we follow the ICRDCE Curriculum for all subjects that have been developed. With these documents as a basis we work to achieve student’s goal.
As a College which strives to achieve the very best for its students, we encourage every student not just to reach their potential, but to go beyond what might appear to be their limits. We strongly encourage Conduct and Effort, not just raw academic success. We genuinely value the effort of a student who may achieve average results, but who has tried their absolute best to achieve those results.
