Teacher eligibility test to be conducted in Sept

PUNE: The Maharashtra State Council of Examination (MSCE) is likely to conduct the much-awaited teacher eligibility test (TET) in September.
Aspirants for teaching jobs in the state must clear the test, which was last held on January 19, 2019.
“The TET 2021 will be held offline as an Optical Mark Recognition- (OMR) based examination.
The online process to fill forms for the examination will start in July.
We are thinking of going online in the next two years but nothing substantial has happened in that direction.
As of now, the TET will be held in the offline mode itself,” said Tukaram Supe, commissioner of MSCE.
The first Maharashtra TET was held in 2013 and the test has been held six times ever since.
The last TET was held in 2019.
“Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the examination could not be conducted in January and now we are planning to hold the examination in September,” added Tupe.
