Come 2022 & Odisha Students Can Find Their Academic Certificates In DigiLocker

Bhubaneswar: From next year, students in Odisha will be able to manage all their academic certificates in a better way and save them from damage because all of them will be available in digital format. What is more, they can access the documents anywhere on their smartphones.

The Odisha government has decided to migrate all the universities and autonomous colleges in the state to the National Academic Depository (NAD) platform by January 1, 2022, under which, academic awards, mark sheets and certificates of students will be kept in DigiLocker, the 24×7 online storehouse of all academic awards of the Ministry of Education.

The cloud-based service is designated as the sole National Academic Depository by the ministry.

On Wednesday, Higher Education Secretary Saswat Mishra directed all 13 universities, 18 government autonomous colleges, and 17 non-government autonomous colleges to migrate to the NAD portal by January 1, 2022.

He also directed the institutions to upload all academic awards, mark sheets and certificates issued from the 2015 calendar year onwards by December 31, 2021.

Thirteen universities and 18 autonomous colleges have registered in the NAD portal while 13 out of 17 non-government autonomous colleges have migrated to the portal so far. Of the registered educational institutions, only nine have initiated the process for uploading mark sheets and certificates, The New Indian Express reported.

Gangadhar Meher University in Sambalpur has uploaded the highest number of 24,776 documents for the period of 2017 to 2020, the report added.
