OKCL’s Network Of Authorized Learning Centers (ALCs) – Expanding The Outreach
In order to facilitate such a large number of OS-CIT learners in various parts of the State, OKCL has established about 550+ Authorized Learning Centers (ALCs) and their authorized satellite learning centers under its unique partnership framework. This network is coordinated by District Lead Centers (DLCs). With the help of these ALCs and their satellites, OKCL offers its services with wider accessibility to the masses in metros, cities, semi-urban areas as well as rural, tribal and hilly areas of the state.
All these ALCs are equipped with state-of-the-art computing infrastructure on LANs with their own proxy servers backed up by OKCL’s formidable, scalable and secure server infrastructure in cloud with server virtualization and dynamic load balancing technologies. A total of about 5,000+ personal computers at ALC’s are equipped with state-of-the-art operating systems, antivirus software, application software and broadband internet connectivity. They are backed-up with inverters and/or diesel generators. Bio-metric fingerprint recognition devices have been deployed at all ALCs for learner identification-authorization-cum-attendance management. All the personal computers at all ALCs are also equipped with web-cameras for operationalizing the OKCL’s Black-Box System for enabling evidence-based learning and assessment management. All the personal computers at ALCs are also equipped with the good quality headphones for effective eLearning experience. Microsoft Licenses are regularly distributed free of cost to all ALCs.
The paperless management of ALCs is facilitated by OKCL’s promoter Company adopted web-based software framework- viz. SOLAR. This framework seamlessly facilitates a complex management of inter-related learner administrative life-cycle, center life-cycle, channel partner life-cycle and course or business offering lifecycle including the management of financial transactions with ALC net-banking accounts and ALC wallets.
Apart from participating in marketing, promotion, counselling, sales and academics and assessment in an agreed protocol, all ALCs try to ensure compliance to brand specification guidelines so as to achieve OS-CIT Brand Persistence and Brand Enhancement. All the network partners also participate in frequent online polls for taking various crucial business and academic decisions in an open, transparent, democratic and participative manner.
OKCL regularly invests in Capacity Building of the ALC Coordinators and that of the Learning Facilitators appointed in ALCs by conducting live lecture series and hands-on workshops by experts in areas such as ongoing course curriculum and its upcoming revisions, Digital Marketing, Effective Counseling, Advances in Information Technology, etc.

Innovation in Education
Transforming Learning with Collaborative AR/VR Development
OKCL has taken a significant step towards transforming the learning landscape by collaborating with various agencies for the development of cutting-edge Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) content under its highly acclaimed eSchool Program. This strategic partnership highlights OKCL’s commitment to innovation, as it actively seeks to harness the power of AR/VR technology to promote student engagement, facilitate deeper comprehension, and ultimately enhance the effectiveness of the learning process.
The integration of AR/VR technology within the eSchool Program has garnered substantial recognition for its capacity to revolutionize traditional teaching methods. By leveraging the immersive capabilities of AR/VR, OKCL empowers teachers to overcome the limitations of traditional instruction, enabling them to effectively communicate complex ideas within a controlled, interactive, and experiential environment.
Utilization of VR contents offers students an unparalleled opportunity to engage with learning content on a whole new level. By immersing students in virtual environments, the program effectively transports them beyond the confines of the classroom, enabling them to actively participate in their own learning journey. This interactive and experiential approach enables students to tackle challenging concepts with greater ease and depth, leading to improved comprehension and retention.
