Abstract
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 implemented various transformative changes aimed at overhauling the education system in India. One of the most notable transitions suggested by the policy is the progression towards Competency-Based Learning (CBL).
This methodology highlights the cultivation of essential skills and competencies, rather than merely focusing on content knowledge, allowing students to utilize their learning effectively in real-world situations. For this transition to succeed, it is essential that teacher education is aligned with this new perspective. This article examines the role of teacher education in supporting the transition towards Competency-Based Learning under NEP 2020, underscoring the challenges, opportunities, and strategies involved.
