Till now the National Eligibility Test ( NET ) was being conducted by University Grants Commission (UGC). Now it is going to change. UGC has reached consensus to oursource the prestigious NET examination which will be conducted now by CBSE. The UGC on 22nd July, 2014 came out with a decision to outsource the National Eligibility Test (NET) which is normally conducted twice a year for University level teaching and Junior Research Fellowship.
The decision to outsource the NET exam to CBSE was taken because UGC was not fully equipped to conduct the examination on national level. If everything goes as planned, there is a huge probability that the upcoming December, 2014 NET examination will be conducted by CBSE.
CBSE is already conducting the AIEEE ( All India Engineering Entrance Examination ) and also All India Pre-Medical Test ( AIPMT) in the past and has all the infra structure to deal with nation wide examinations. UGC will share its resource persons with CBSE in order to set the question papers in 80 subjects. This is the first time CBSE is conducting examinations for post graduate students. CBSE has been conducting the papers only for secondary and school leaving students till now.
The University Grants Commission holds the National Eligibility Test (NET) twice each year for determining the eligibility of Indian nationals for the Eligibility for Assistant Professor only or Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) and Eligibility for Assistant Professor both in Indian universities and colleges.
