Yes I am fully agree with your view regarding the issue of International accreditation and recognition of Indian LIS degrees
Dear Dr. Ahmed,
Thanks for your post and for addressing a very relevant issue. I presume your Gulf exposure might have propelled you to write the post.
Nearly three decades ago, I too had realized this during my brief stints in Far Eastern & Western Countries. Actually, the accreditation in our profession is extremely necessary for three things:
(1) The ever shrinking market because a large number of pass-outs are educated from distance modes of educations.
(2) Lack of Transparency in recruitment processes &
(3) Improper jobs to deserving professionals
However, as I understand, the course curriculums of our Universities. as well as medium of instructions need to be evaluated first before aspiring for accreditation by foreign Universities.
I am sure that Indian Universities as a whole will (& should) never be considered for accreditation by any Universities of the Countries you have named because there exist unevenness in quality of pedagogy and evaluating systems among Indian Universities.
Sincerely,
Siddhartha S. Ray
