Services Group 1. Whatever is coming out of the Mission has to be created in the form of services and that could be taken to the consumers under Specified Service Level Agreement.
Services Group 2. The service could be rolled out through a new Special Service Vehicle (SPVs) or through a virtual overlay of existing institutions/entities
Services Group 3. In the umbrella structure of SPV (new or virtual), there would be ample scope for competition amongst sub service providing entities to add quality and ensure cost effectiveness. These entities could be public, private or PPP as case/situations emerges.
Services Group • There could be 5-6 such umbrella service organizations to cover entire gamut of NMEICT activities. • For basic and necessary service provisioning these service entities could be funded under NMEICT for specialized verticals they may charge the indenting institutions
Services Group 6. Evaluating services and certification activities would be bench marked by the regulator such as UGC/AICTE/DEC/NAAC/NBA/NCHER and be considered for acceptance by the academic bodies of universities/institutions so as to create a common platform of benchmarking students spread across the country.
Services Group 7. Mode of learning as a means of recognizing learners achievement would give way to the competencies built up in the learner and the outcomes that are demonstrated by acquisition of knowledge/training through whatever means/inputs.

Services Group 9.

Services Group 12. Efforts will be made to ensure that highly affordable connectivity solutions are made available to students at their home. This may be done by leveraging the backhaul available at educational institutions.
