Scheme for conducting Seminar on Capacity Building of Rehabilitation Professionals for Persons with Disabilities under North-East Sub-Component Plan

1 7-135/NE/RCI/2017


Introduction

The Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI), a statutory body under the Department of Empowerment of PwD, Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment has been entrusted with the responsibility to regulate training policies and programmes in the field of special Education & disability rehabilitation, to maintain Central Rehabilitation Register (CRR) for registered professionals & personnel and to promote Research in disability sector.

As on date, the strength of RCI’s approved training institutions are 623 who have been conducting more than 1000 batches of training courses from certificate to Psy.D. level throughout the country. The total number of trained human resources enrolled in CRR of RCI is about 1,21,184 only as against the requirement of 8,76,270 persons. It clearly indicates that, sincere effort is required to meet the demand of trained professionals to cater the specific needs of CWSN in order to make them self reliant up to the extent possible. Hence, it is essential to promote the potential institutions to conduct RCI’s approved courses either through face-to-face or distance mode throughout the country subject to the fulfilment of minimum required norms.

Rehabilitation Council of India being a nodal agency for development of master trainers in disability sector has successfully completed several national level programmes in the past. Even today the number of training institutions in the NE Regions is very few in comparison with the required number of trained professionals to cater the need of CWSN. The North Eastern Region Vision 2020 as developed around 2010 has also stated that despite expansion of education infrastructure, satisfactory literacy rate and pupil-teacher ratios, the skills and knowledge base of the youth in NER is inadequate to equip them to compete at national and international levels for employment or for entrepreneurial activities.

The existing training institutions are not sufficient to bring the persons with disabilities in the line of mainstream development of society. The trained professionals / personnel in the field of special Education for catering the needs of children with disabilities are too less in NE. The awareness about disability among government officials of various departments, NGOs is also too less in NE. The inclusion of children with disabilities in regular school is also negligible in NE. It is also important to enhance the knowledge and skills of mid level functionaries of Govt. Dept. to facilitate various schemes /programmes related to empowerment of PwDs in NE Region.

The Section 17 of the Rights of Persons with Disability Act-2016 states that “The appropriate Government and the local authorities shall take measures for establishment adequate number of teacher training institutions; train and employ teachers, including teachers with disability who are qualified in sign language and Braille and also teachers who are trained in teaching children with intellectual disability; train professionals and staff to support inclusive education at all levels of school education, among other measures. This training cum awareness programme will facilitate for resolving most of the issues related to Human Resource Development in the North-Eastern Region and also update the knowledge of Rehabilitation Professional working in North-Eastern States.

Objectives of the Seminar

1. To provide a platform for the existing Rehabilitation Professionals and organizations to do stocktaking

2. To create awareness about the new developments in the Disability Sector 3. To deliberate on the possible strategies to enhance the capacity of the North–East Region to have

appropriate and adequate manpower to respond to the requirements of the disability sector 4. To create opportunities for active partnership between the Government, Universities, NGOs and

other stakeholders
