If you expect an answer without beating around the bush, then it is “Yes”, pursuing B.Ed from IGNOU is valid for Govt. Job. But B.Ed pursued through distance education is not valid or eligible for a central Govt. job.
If you want to know more about the course details and the B.Ed. course’s validity in IGNOU, continue reading it.
Before moving on to the main topic, let me familiarize you with some basic info that you must know before applying for India’s course. Any degree course that you pursue in India, must have UGC recognition; only then is it considered valid. If it is a college, then it must have an affiliation to the UGC recognized university. For technical courses, the universities must have AICTE (All India Council for Technical Education) approval. And for the teaching courses like B.Ed. or D.EI.Ed, colleges or universities must have NCTE approval.
Simply put, IGNOU is a UGC recognized open university, so any degree you pursue in this university is valid. Thus, you are eligible to apply for Government jobs. But, not for a central government job.
Most of the Indian universities have put an end to offering B.Ed. course via distance education. Still, IGNOU is one of the very few universities that offers B.Ed. through distance education, which is completely valid.
It is worth mentioning that IGNOU is one of India’s biggest government distance learning universities, known for its quality education.
