Career Disha Nepal conducted Online Assessment to SEE (Secondary Education Examination) students in Kings College in collaboration with Glocal Nepal.

The program was Organized by Glocal Nepal named 'Glocal After School', where the program coordinator was Maulik Shakya. 22 students attended that program who came from different schools across Kathmandu valley. Since they all are waiting for their SEE  result, few students notified us that they were involved in bridge courses for their higher education.

The students were initially unaware of their expectations, as not much information was provided to them about career counseling. However, they caught up quite well, asking questions regarding the assessment system of Career Disha Nepal and making sure that their questions were heard. They were critical about the assessment and were careful about their choices during the assessment. Few of the students took longer than others as one student implied she had never thought of those specific questions and would need more time to reflect. Without a shadow of doubt, it was a good sign for us.

Students who got the results instantaneously could reflect upon their personality and question their choices. Some students who were so certain that they wanted to take IT as their career reflected - they might afterall reconsider their stance according to their personality.

All in all, it was a successful visit to introduce career counseling to the youth who recently completed nation’s first SEE examination.

The official language of Nepal is Nepali. According to the National Census of 2011, there are 123 different Nepalese languages spoken as mother tongues (first language) in Nepal. Lots of people, whose mother tongue is different from their country’s official language, find it as a barrier to learn the official language in school. And then there is a whole different challenge, speaking English. Most of the schools are teaching more subjects in English than improving the skills and knowledge of the official language Nepali itself. We would like to take up this issue as an essential basis to talk about the gap between focusing on the international language English than investing in learning a higher level in the mother tongue or the official language.

Advantages of being educated in the official language

Children who are taught only in one’s mother tongue can miss big opportunities for their future. People who cannot speak a country’s dominant language often have restricted opportunities for employment and social mobility. Literature, Movies, Media – the access to information and entertainment is limited. It has also been shown that skills and concepts taught in the learners’ mother tongue do not have to be re-taught when they transfer to a second language. Studies have shown that a learner who knows how to read and write in one language will develop reading and writing skills in a new language faster. Education systems should perform both possibilities where the official language as a subject as well as education in one’s home language are both given equal importance. That’s a question of respect for ethnic minority language and culture. But they must also ensure that children from disadvantaged minority backgrounds learn the official language to find a good place in society and get decent jobs. Furthermore, parents who do not speak the language their children are being taught in school may be less able to engage with teachers, education authorities and to help with their children’s educational needs. And then there is the question of learning English. It is definitely harder to learn a third language when you are not fully familiar with your mother tongue and the official language of your country. It’s proven, that learners automatically transfer knowledge acquired in one language to another language as soon as they have learned sufficient vocabulary in the new language. To put it plainly- be good in Nepali, then it’s easier to learn English.

To sum up, we would like to underline the message that it is absolutely important to speak first of all your mother tongue and then Nepali in an above average level. It will help you to be able to communicate with everyone in your country and to deal with government operations or/and even with the local shops around the corner. It is an investment for your cultural heritage than just focusing on learning English, which is undoubtedly a big advantage.

नेपालको राष्ट्रिय भाषा नेपाली हो | नेपालको राष्ट्रिय जनगणना ई.स.२०११ को अनुसार नेपालीहरुले १२३ फरक नेपाली मातृभाषाहरु बोल्ने गर्दछन् | कतिपय मातृभाषाहरु राष्ट्रिय भाषाभन्दा फरक हुन्छन् | मातृभाषा राष्ट्रिय भाषा भन्दा फरक भएकाहरुलाई विद्यालयमा पठनपाठन गर्न असहज हुन्छ | साथसाथै विद्यालयमा अंग्रेजी भाषा बोल्नु पर्ने अर्को वाध्यता पनि छ | अधिकांश विद्यालयहरुमा नेपाली भाषागत शुद्धिकरणमा ध्यान नदिई धेरै विषयहरु अंग्रेजी भाषामा पढाउने गरेको पाइन्छ | विद्यालयमा सिकाइलाई प्रभावकारी बनाउन अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय भाषा अंग्रेजीलाई प्राथमिकता दिने वा राष्ट्रिय भाषालाई सुधारगर्ने, यी दुई मुद्दाहरु विचमा रहेको अन्तरालको विषयमा छलफल गर्न आवश्यक ठानेका छौ |

राष्ट्रिय भाषामा शिक्षित हुनुको फाइदाहरु

मातृभाषामा मात्र पढेका विद्यार्थीहरुले भविष्यमा आइपर्ने अवसरहरु प्राप्त गर्न सक्दैनन् | प्राय नेपाली राष्ट्रिय भाषा बोल्न नसक्ने मानिसहरुले रोजगारी र सामाजिक क्रियाकलाप जस्ता अवसरहरु बाट बन्चित हुन सक्छन् | साहित्य तथा संचारको क्षेत्रमा यिनीहरुको पहुच सिमित हुन्छ | अनुसन्धानले देखाए बमोजिम विद्यार्थीहरुले मातृ भाषामा सिकेको ज्ञान र धारणाहरु पुन दोश्रो भाषामा सिकाउनु पर्दैन | जुन विद्यार्थी प्रभावकारी ढंगबाट पढ्न र लेख्न सक्छ त्यो व्यक्तिले अर्को भाषामा पनि छिटो सिक्न सक्छ | शैक्षिक प्रणालीमा दुवै किसिमका सम्भावनाहरुलाई संचालन गर्न सक्नुपर्दछ | मातृभाषामा पढ्नेहरुले राष्ट्रिय भाषाको विषय पनि पढ्नु पर्दछ | जातीय अल्पसंख्यीय भाषा र संस्कृति बोकेकाहरुको लागि यो प्रश्न बन्न सक्छ | तर जनजाति तथा पिछडिएका वर्गहरुका बालबालिकाहरुले समाजमा उच्च स्थान, राम्रो पेशा हासिल गर्नको लागि राष्ट्रिय भाषागत ज्ञानमा सुनिश्चित हुनु पर्दछ | त्यस्तैगरी, विद्यालयमा बालबालिकाहरुले बोल्ने भाषा घरमा अभिभावकहरुले बोल्न सक्नु भएन भने बालबालिकाहरु विद्यालयको सिकाइ क्रियाकलापहरुमा सक्रिय रुपमा समावेश हुन नसकेको पाइन्छ | त्यस्तैगरी अंग्रेजी भाषा पनि अर्को प्रश्नको विषय हो | आफ्नो मातृभाषा र राष्ट्रिय भाषामा घुलमिल हुनु पुर्वनै तेस्रो भाषा सिक्नु भनेको अवश्य पनि कठिन कुरा हो |  नयाँ भाषाका शब्दावलीहरु जानेपछि आफुले सिकेको ज्ञानहरु स्वत: रुपमा हस्तान्तरण हुन्छ भन्ने कुरा प्रमाणित भैसकेको छ | त्यसैले अन्य भाषा सिक्नु पुर्व आफ्नो राष्ट्रिय भाषामा राम्रो हुनुपर्दछ | जसले अंग्रेजी भाषा सिक्न सहज हुन्छ |

त्यसकारण, अन्य भाषा सिक्नु पुर्व आफ्नो मातृ र राष्ट्रिय भाषामा दक्ष हुनु महत्वपूर्ण हुन्छ |  जसले गर्दा नेपालको सरकारी कार्यलय देखि हरेक व्यक्तिहरुसंग कुराकानी गर्न सजिलो हुन्छ | अँग्रेजी भाषा मात्र सिक्नुमा केन्द्रित हुनुभन्दा पनि भाषा सास्कृतिको सम्रक्षणमा केन्द्रित हुनु पछिको लागि बढी लाभदायिक हुन्छ |

In our counseling sessions, we are often inquired about our recommendations about quality education. This is a big question and is influenced by many different factors. Against the popular belief, the price is not always an indicator of good quality education.

According to UNICEF, “a quality education is defined by five elements: the learner's outside experiences, learning environment, the content of education, learning processes, and education outcomes. Learners must be healthy, well-nourished and supported by their families and communities. The learning environment should be safe, healthy and stimulating. Appropriate education content is relevant to the learner and presented in a well-managed classroom. Learning outcomes should meet promote participation in society." All five factors must be present for learners to receive a quality education. To measure the quality of education, outcomes are examined. Learners' academic achievements should match their age and grade level and meet national standards.

What else is an indicator for a high-quality education?

The teachers are always the key for find out if an education is recommendable. How is the relation between local and international teachers? Do the school offers teachers education? The problem with teachers can sometimes be, that they are paid poorly (and sometimes irregularly) and suffer from low social and professional status. Those reasons can entail less motivation and have a powerful impact on the quality of student learnings. Under these circumstances, teachers are only teaching basic skills like reading and math and don’t encourage the students to think critically and interdisciplinary working. You should also find out about teaching methods. Does the school offer different teaching methods like excursions or workshops or is it just frontal teaching all the time?

We think, the Austrian Nobel Prize Winner, Albert Einstein, summarized the topic about quality education effectively: “Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think”. So if you have the impression that you will get from a course more than just the knowledge of the different topics, choose it.

“गुणस्तरीय क्षिक्षा आजको आवश्यकता” यो नारा हामीले सुन्दै आइरहेका छौ | तर  गुणस्तरीय शिक्षाको अर्थ के हो?... कुन कलेज वा विश्वविद्यालयले गुणस्तरीय शिक्षा प्रदान गर्दछ?... जस्ता प्रश्नहरुको उत्तरमा भने प्राय अनविज्ञनै रहेको पाइन्छ | करियर दिशा नेपालले प्रदान गर्ने करियर सम्बन्धि सेवाहरु मध्ये ‘करियर परामर्श सत्र’मा पनि विद्यार्थीहरुले माथिका प्रश्नहरु सोध्ने गरेका छन्  | गुणस्तरीय शिक्षा हासिल गर्न विभिन्न तत्वहरुले प्रत्येक्ष वा अप्रत्यक्ष रुपमा प्रभाव पारेको हुन्छ | कलेज वा विश्वविद्यालयहरुको महँगो शैक्षिक शुल्क हुदैमा गुणस्तरीय शिक्षा प्रदान गर्दछ भन्ने चाई होइन | शुल्कको आधारमा शिक्षाको गुणस्तर भने मापन गर्न सकिदैन |

युनिसेफ (UNICEF)ले विद्यार्थीहरुको वाह्य अनुभव, सिकाइ गर्ने वातावरण, शैक्षिक विषयवस्तु, सिकाइ प्रक्रिया  र शैक्षिक परिणाम, जस्ता पाँचवटा तत्वहरुको आधारमा गुणस्तरीय शिक्षालाई परिभाषित गरेको छ | विद्यार्थीहरु स्वस्थ, राम्रो पालन पोषण भएको, सिकाइको लागि विद्यार्थी स्वयम अग्रसर रहनुको साथै समाज र परिवारले पनि अध्ययन क्रियाकलापमा पूर्ण सहयोग गरेको हुनुपर्दछ | सिकाई क्रियाकलाप  स्वस्थ, सुरक्षित, आधारभूत सुविधा सम्पन्न र सौहार्दपूर्ण वातावरणमा हुनुपर्दछ | शिक्षण विधि विद्यार्थी मैत्री हुनु पर्दछ, शैक्षिक विषयवस्तु विद्यार्थीहरुको उमेर अनुसार सान्दर्भिक, व्यवस्थित कक्षाकोठा र विद्यालय, उपयुक्त शिक्षण विधि र शिक्षकको प्रस्तुतीकरण राम्रो हुनुपर्दछ | सिकाइको परिणामले सामाजिक समस्याहरुको समाधानमा सहभागिता बढाउने र स्वास्थ्य, पोषणको बारेमा आधारभूत ज्ञान प्रदान गर्न सक्नु पर्दछ | विद्यार्थीहरुलाई गुणस्तरीय शिक्षा प्रदान गर्न शैक्षिक सँस्थाहरुले माथिका पाँचवटा तत्वहरुमा ध्यान दिनु पर्दछ | शिक्षाको गुणस्तर मापन गर्नको लागि परिक्षाको परिणाम जाचबुझ गरिन्छ | विद्यार्थीको शैक्षिक उपलब्धि, उनीहरुको उमेर, शैक्षिकस्तर र राष्ट्रिय मापदण्ड अनुसारको हुनु पर्दछ |

उच्च गुणस्तरीय शिक्षा सूचक

विद्यार्थीलाई उपयुक्त हुने खालको शिक्षाको खोजि वा सिफारिस गर्ने प्रमुख व्यक्ति शिक्षकहरुनै हुन् | स्थानीय स्तरको शिक्षकहरु अन्तराष्ट्रिय स्थरको शिक्षकहरुसंग कसरी सम्बन्धित छन् ?... के स्थानीय स्थरको शिक्षकहरुलाई विद्यालयले शिक्षण सम्बन्धि तालिम प्रदान गर्दछ ?... कहिलेकाही शिक्षकहरुलाई निम्न स्थरको तलव, कमजोर सामाजिक र पेशागत सम्मानले पनि गुणस्तरीय शिक्षा प्रदान गर्न यी कारणहरुले प्रभाव पार्दछ | शिक्षकहरुले आफुले पढाउने विषयको मात्र आधारभूत शिक्षा प्रदान गर्ने तर विद्यार्थीहरुलाई रचनात्मक क्षमता विकास तिर प्रोत्साहन गरेको पाइदैन | कक्षाकोठामा प्रयोग गरिने शिक्षण विधिहरुले पनि गुणस्तरीय शिक्षामा प्रभाव पारेको हुन्छ | विद्यालयमा शिक्षण सिकाई विधिहरु मध्ये कुन शिक्षण विधिलाई प्राथमिकता दिन्छन् सो कुरालाई पनि मध्यनजर गरेर रचनात्मक क्षमता वृद्धि गर्ने विद्यालय रोज्नुपर्दछ |

अष्ट्रियाका नोबेल पुरस्कार विजेता अल्बर्ट आइन्स्टाइन ले ‘गुणस्तरीय शिक्षा’को अर्थ यसरी दिएका छन् |  “शिक्षा भनेको विषयवस्तुको तथ्य जान्नु मात्र नभई रचनात्मक क्षमता वृद्धि गराउने तालिम हो |” त्यसैले त्यस्तो खालको कलेज रोज जहाँ सम्बन्धित पाठ्यपुस्तकको ज्ञान हासिल गर्नुमा मात्र सिमित नभई सृजनशीलता पनि वृद्धि गर्न सकियोस |

Career Disha Nepal has the objective to provide the services equally in urban as well as rural areas’ youths and increase CDN’s network to run our services in the rural areas of Nepal. Concerning our objectives, CDN team members, Technical Director Inge Patsch and Project Manager Sagar Ghimire travelled to Jumla on the 4^th of March till the 14^th of March. It was first labor market research in the Mid-Western Region (rural).

 The initial objectives of the field visit were

• to test the assessment and labour market workshop in a remote region.
• to test the validity of CDN’s services through the indecision scale.
• to run a pilot project related the labour market, data collection and testing the format.
• to create job videos- Whatchado.
• to identify local partners for career counselling in future.
• to coordinate district Data Collection via local partners.

The summary of the field report according to the technical director and the project manager is as follows:

During the 10 days field trip, we did personality based assessment for over 70 students including labor market workshops, individual career counseling. We also included the indecision scale before and after the assessment to assess students’ level of confusion. It was a general observation that the students were quite open to answering questions and took comparatively longer time to fill the assessment. However, due to the short time-frame we could not reach as many students as we would have liked.

In order to run the pilot phase for collecting labor market data, we gathered detailed information about jobs through interviews and discussion with different experts involves in different job sectors. We covered 6 job sectors that were basic to Jumla; Agriculture, Health, Building & Construction, Engineering, Media and Social Work.

We have taken Whatchado video of Keshab - a Social Worker,  Kalika - a Health Assistant, Peru - Disabled Worker Social Mobilizer, Sushil Devkota- Social Worker and the founder of RACE.

We discussed the viability of career counseling in Jumla with active social workers, Sushil Devkota and , Jibraj Shahi. Following their enthusiasm, we provided them with basic training about different phases that could be included in basic career counseling. Phase 1- Taking indecision scale, doing workshop and filling assessment; Phase 2- Uploading and processing the data; Phase 3- Giving feedback to the students and taking indecision scale again.

On the 21^st of March 2017, Career Disha Nepal (CDN) and Research Centre for Applied Science and Technology (RECAST) unit of Tribhuwan University signed the Memorandum of Understanding, which will see the pioneers of modern educational institute and the innovators of career counseling in Nepal work hand-in-hand to create a society where information is free and focused.

Professor Rameshwar Adhikari, the director of RECAST, officially inaugurated the program by illuminating us with the sheer importance of research in Nepal. He further highlighted how research can contribute to Nepal’s sustainable development.

It was a great honour for Career Disha Nepal to have the opening words from the Dean of Science and Technology- Prof. Ram Prasad Khatiwada, PhD. In his encouraging speech, he casted light on the misunderstood educational system of Nepal, in both academic as well as vocational sector. He further emphasized how the lack of educational information and knowledge about choices are leading the current youth to easily ‘detour’ in their pursuit of career and meaningful life. Even though he holds a prestigious place in the academic foreground, he reiterated that youth were being forced in the academic stream regardless of their passion or will.

Hari Krishna Dahal , the senior career counsellor of CDN, gave a presentation about the vision and the mission that drives CDN. He detailed the team with the different tools and the technology involved in those tools.

Inge Patsch, the technical director of CDN, briefed the present members there about the impact CDN and RECAST together can create, and should create. She illustrated thoroughly how RECAST and CDN working together can work effectively and add value to each other’s expertise.

We are hearing about online education frequently. This time we are going to give detail information about this education. Most of us think that there is a certain age for studying and then holding this one career. To learn something online opens the range of topics and for sure time to learn. It is the platform for autodidact and self-organized people. Whereas, social activist Miss Radha Poudel is the best example. Social worker, author, and activist Miss. RadhaPoudel very actively involved in the work of CDN. She was award winner of Madan Puraskar 2014, Nepal's 75 Women Leaders 2016, Social Work Award 2013. She completed her Master in Development Management at Asian Institute of Management (MDM), Master in Arts (MA), Master in Education (M.ed) and Bachelor in Nursing (BN) in regular basis college. As she is now studying different online courses we are going to share her experience about online education.

What is Online Education?

Online education is the fastest growing way of learning by using technology, where students and instructor interact via internet application, telephone and computer without leaving their own residence. There are free and paid online education, some of them are run by the affiliated university and provides grades and certificates. Radha Poudel has done several online courses to enhance her knowledge and skills related to her career. She is satisfied with its convenient fees, time and choice of given subjects. She recommends others to try the open space with a variety of choices to develop one's skills and capacity.

How are online courses different from in-class courses?

Both online and in-class university and college have the same goal to provide students a quality education.  The key different between online and in-class courses is the internet-based learning process, that means all exams, lectures and much of reading in online classes are done on the web. Similarly, instructors and students are not in the same place. Online classes provide more flexibility than do in class courses for purpose of giving more convenience for the learner.

How could Nepalese people benefit from online education?

While studying abroad is increasing in Nepal, the biggest advantage of online education is to find the desired subject online which is unavailable here. Online education minimizes the gap to receive the quality education for everyone – no matter where they live. One can enroll online education from different background and environments. So, it is a big platform for all students, teachers and not forgetting people with different abilities. Nowadays, more colleges and universities are offering online education in a variety of courses and user-friendly designed. The flexible schedule and one can do any interesting courses, in their favorite time, place and posture, are big benefits. Online education also develops technical skills by using different internet applications to accomplished given assignments.

According to social activist RadhaPoudel: “Sometimes, internet connectivity and languages could be the challenge for Nepalese people. We could benefit from its providing features, convenient time, a variety of option, and affordable fees.”

What could be requirements for online courses?

Most of the requirements of online education are similar to regular University or College. First and for most requirements of online learning, is internet access. Most of the online courses are designed user-friendly but one most need the basic computer skills. Online education itself flexible, it depends on how you managing a time for accomplished given assignments and questions and answers floor.  Here are some links you can check out for online education.

Summing it up, all kind of learning process has its own benefits. First of all, each individual needs to have the motivation to learn. Before you choose any educational path, think about general questions like what is the most important thing you want to develop in your life? How your intended subject can help you to reach your interested career goal? After answering these questions - go for it. Where ever and whatever you choose to study the most important is, that you work hard for it.

हामीले अनलाईन शिक्षाको बारेमा चर्चा सुन्दै आएका छौ | यस विषयमा विस्तृत जानकारी प्रदान गर्ने उद्देश्यले यो लेख लेखेका छौ | प्राय, हाम्रो समाजमा निश्चित उमेरसम्ममा शिक्षा हासिल गरि सम्बन्धित पेशामा आवद्ध हुनुपर्दछ भन्ने मान्यता पाइन्छ | अनलाईन शिक्षा आफ्नो व्यक्तित्व विकास गर्न चाहने व्यक्तिको लागि एउटा खुल्ला मञ्च हो, जहाँ आफुलाई अनुकुल समय, उमेर, इच्छा अनुसारको विषयमा अध्ययन गर्न सकिन्छ | शिक्षा निरन्तर रूपमा जीवन पर्यन्त चलिरहने प्रक्रिया हो । अनलाईन शिक्षा पनि हाम्रो लागि सिकाईको अवसर हो, यसको ज्वलन्त उदाहरणको रुपमा एक सामाजिक कार्यकर्ता “राधा पौडेललाई” लिन सकिन्छ | मदन पुरस्कार (ई.स २०१४), र अन्य सामाजिक पुरस्कारहरु द्धारा सम्मानित श्री राधा पौडेलले नियमित कलेजमा नर्सिङ विषयमा स्नातक, शिक्षा, मानविकी र अन्य विषयमा स्नाकोत्तर गरिसक्नुभएको छ साथै विभिन्न सामाजिक विषयहरुमा अझ बढी ज्ञान हासिल गर्नको लागि अनलाईन शिक्षा पनि लिइरहनु भएको छ | अनलाईन शिक्षाको माध्यमबाट उहाँले सामाजिक दर्शन, सामाजिक चुनौती र त्यसका अवसरहरुको बारेमा थप ज्ञान हासिल  गर्नुभएको जानकारी दिनुभयो | अनलाईन कोर्सले आफु आबद्ध करियर(वृति) विकासमा ज्ञान र सिप अभिबृद्धि गर्न मद्दत पुगेको, यी कोर्सहरु उचित शुल्क, समय र विषयको छनोट गर्न पाएकोमा सन्तुष्ट भएको बताउनुहुन्छ | उहाँले अनलाईन कोर्सहरुको भरपुर फाइदा उठाई आफ्नो करियरमा सिप र क्षमताको विकास गर्न सबैलाई सल्लाह दिन चाहनुहुन्छ |

अनलाईन शिक्षा

निश्चित समय तालिका र विषयवस्तुमा, विद्यार्थी र शिक्षकहरुले आफुलाई उपयुक्त हुने स्थान बाटै, विभिन्न प्रविधिहरु, इन्टरनेट एप्लिकेसन, टेलिफोन र कम्प्युटरको प्रयोग बाट गरिने अध्ययन/अध्यापन अनलाईन शिक्षा हो | कुनै अनलाईन शिक्षाहरु विश्वविद्यालयमा सम्बन्धन प्राप्त विषयहरु हुन्छन् र अन्त्यमा शैक्षिक प्रमाणपत्र पनि प्रदान गर्दछन् | यी कोर्सहरु निशुल्क वा विषयअनुसार शुल्क सहितका हुन्छन् |

नियमित कोर्सहरुको जस्तै  विद्यार्थीहरुलाई गुणस्तरीय शिक्षा प्रदान गर्ने लक्ष्य भएको अनलाईन कोर्समा  सिकाई प्रक्रिया शिक्षक र विद्यार्थीहरुविच प्रतक्ष्य अन्तरक्रियाबाट नभई इन्टरनेट एप्लिकेशनहरुको माध्यमबाट सिकाई हुने गर्दछ | अनलाईन शिक्षामा कक्षा संचालन, शिक्षकको निर्देशन, गृहकार्य तथा अन्य अभ्यासहरु प्राय इन्टरनेटमानै पुरा गरिन्छ | त्यस्तैगरी विद्यार्थी र शिक्षक निश्चित ठाउँको आधारमा नभई क्षमता र इच्छाको आधारमा  आवद्ध हुने गर्दछन् | नियमित कोर्षको दाजोमा अनलाईन शिक्षामा आफैमा लचकदार हुनुको साथै प्राय शुल्कपनि महँगो हुदैन |

नेपालीहरुले अनलाईन शिक्षाबाट लिन सक्ने फाइदाहरु   

अध्यन गर्नको लागि वैदेशिक यात्रा बढ्दो क्रममा रहेको नेपालको परिस्थितिमा अनलाईन शिक्षाबाट नेपालीहरु  बढी लाभान्वित हुन सक्छन् | सबैभन्दा प्रमुख फाईदा भनेको आफुले चाहेको तर नेपालमा उपलब्ध नभएका विषयहरुको अध्ययन आफ्नो घर परिवार, वासस्थान नछोडीकन पढ्न पाउनु हो | अनलाईन शिक्षाले भौगोलिक कठिनता र  गुणस्तरीय शिक्षा बिचको दुरीलाई छोटो बनाउने वातावरण सिर्जना गर्दछ | जो कोहि, जस्तो सुकै वातावरण तथा सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमिको भएपनि, जहाँ कहिँ रहेर पनि, अनलाईन शिक्षा लिन सक्दछन् | त्यसैले लचकदार समय तालिका, विविध कोर्षहरु भएको अनलाईन शिक्षा, बाह्य कुराहरु, राजनीति, ट्राफिक जाम, यातायात तथा संचार जस्ता झन्झटमा पर्न नचाहने, परिवर्तित मौसम बाट प्रभावित हुने, विश्वविद्यालयको वातावरणमा घुलमिल हुन नसक्ने, शारीरिक तथा व्यक्तिगत समस्या भएका र कार्य व्यस्तताको कारण नियमित कलेजमा अध्ययन गर्ने समयको अभाव भएकाहरुलाई अनलाईन शिक्षा उपयुक्त हुन्छ | सम्पूर्ण अनलाईन शिक्षा प्रयोगकर्तालाई मध्यनजर गरेर अनलाईन शिक्षाको डिजाइन गरेको छ | अनलाईन शिक्षाको अर्को फाईदा भनेको सम्पूर्ण सिकाई क्रियाकलापहरु इन्टरनेट एप्लिकेसनमार्फत हुने हुनाले प्राविधिक सिपको पनि विकास हुन्छ |

सामाजिक कार्यकर्ता राधाको अनुसार “कहिलेकाँही इन्टरनेट कनेक्सन र भाषा, नेपालीहरुको लागि चुनौतीपूर्ण हुन सक्छ तर यसको दाजोमा अनलाईन शिक्षा बाट लिन सकिने फाईदाहरु ज्यादा छन् |”

अनलाईन कोर्ष लिनको लागि आवश्यकताहरु

प्राय गरेर अनलाईन शिक्षालाई पनि नियमित कलेजको जस्तै शैक्षिक सामग्रीहरुको आवश्यकता पर्दछ | अनलाईन शिक्षालाई सबैभन्दा महत्वपूर्ण र अति आवश्यक कुरा बनेको इन्टरनेट सुविधा हो | प्राय गरेर अनलाईन शिक्षाहरुको प्रयोगकर्ताहरुको अनुकुलताको आधारमा डिजाइन गरिएको हुन्छ तर पनि विद्यार्थीमा आधारभूत कम्प्युटर शिप भने हुनुपर्दछ | यो शिक्षा आफैमा लचकदार छ तर पनि अध्यनललाई प्रभावकारी बनाउन तपाईले गृहकार्य समापन गर्नको लागि दिएको समय, तपाईको अन्तरक्रियात्मक क्रियाकलापमा सहभागीतामा निर्भर रहन्छ | तपाईले अनलाईन शिक्षा प्रदान गर्ने यो लिंकहरु क्लिक गर्न सक्नुहुन्छ | (http://odectu.edu.np/index.php/tribhuvan-university-2/ or www.ica.edu.np)

निष्कर्षमा, शिक्षा नियमित कलेज बाट लिएको होस् या अनलाईनबाट सिकाई सदैव फाईदाजनक नै  हुन्छ |  सबैभन्दा पहिला त व्यक्तिमा अध्यन गर्न चाहने प्रेरणाको आवश्यकता पर्दछ | कुनैपनि शैक्षिक बाटो रोज्नु पुर्व आफैलाई केही प्रश्नहरु गर्नुहोस्, मेरो व्यक्तिगत विकासको लागि सबै भन्दा महत्वपूर्ण कुरा के हुन सक्छ? ... मेरो कुन क्षमताको विकास गर्न चाहन्छु?... मैले रोजेको विषयले मेरो जीवनमा के अर्थ राख्दछ ?... मैले रोजेको करियरलाई कसरि सहयोग गर्दछ? ... जस्ता सामान्य प्रश्नहरुको उत्तर आफैमा खोज्नुहोस जसले तपाईको लक्ष्य प्राप्त गर्न सहयोग गर्दछ | यी प्रश्नहरुको उत्तर पाए पछी तपाईले चाहेको विषयमा अध्यन गर्नुहोस् | जुन विषय र कलेजको प्रकार रोजे पनि सफलता हासिल गर्नको लागि तपाईको निरन्तर प्रयास अत्यावश्यक हुन्छ |
