NSS Programmes for Continuing Education: Tata Institute of Social Sciences Mumbai

NSS PROGRAMMES
In view of the expertise of the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) in social work and social sciences, and also its role in the evolution of National Service Scheme, the Government of India designated TISS as a Training, Orientation and Research Centre for National Service Scheme (NSS) in 1969. At TISS, the Centre functions under the title NSS Unit , which is located within the School of Lifelong Learning.

The impact of the NSS Unit spreads beyond the campus of the Institute and beyond competency-building for NSS. The jurisdiction of the NSS Unit spreads to almost 1,000 NSS Units of Junior and Degree Colleges in Maharashtra. Every year, the Unit provides training to about 200–225 teachers designated as NSS Programme Officers. The training is in the form of NSS Orientation Programmes and NSS Refresher Courses.

The training content and methodology has been perceived to be useful by the programme officers not only for the NSS, but also in their role as teachers. Indeed, many of them specifically observe that the course gives them a good understanding of students as youth, thus enhancing their ability to deal with them more effectively in all their roles as teachers. The trainees are given time to interact with the Unit faculty daily prior to the commencement of sessions and at the end of the day.

Outside session timings, they are encouraged to use the Library and meet other TISS faculty. Some of them also visit the Computer Centre to join special classes designed to suit their time and needs in order to upgrade their computer skills. Many return later to utilise the services of the Computer Centre in processing their research data. This personalised approach helps to add greater meaning to their visit to TISS and also increases their commitment to the NSS training course. Each course is evaluated by the trainees and the findings are used for incorporating necessary changes.

The Unit faculty are also able to contact about another 200+ teachers each year through visits to universities, colleges and camps for seminars, workshops and programme visits.

Some of the recent NSS Refresher Courses have been on topics like:
Sustainable Rural Development
Harmony and Peace
Social Communication
Resource Mobilisation and Management
Volunteerism
Water Management
Skill for Tobacco Control Intervention
