Welcome to Association of Indian College Principals
It was in the winter of 1997 that when some of us the fellow Principals met in Delhi, attending the Principals conference hosted by the ‘Indian Colleges Forum,’ the idea of forming an All India Principals organization, similar to that of the ‘Association of Indian Universities,’ was mooted. A Steering Committee was formed to ascertain the views of the Principals across the country about the feasibility of such an organization. Dr.G. Ramachandram, the Convener of the Steering Committee, wrote nearly 1000 letters to fellow Principals seeking their views. He had received an overwhelming response to the idea of an All India Principals organization. And encouraged by the response, some nine Principals had met at Goa University on 22nd February, 2008 and formed the Association of Indian College Principals (AICP) ...
