SELECTION AND CERTIFICATION JOURNEY

At EkaLavya, student learning outcomes are our highest priority. Since Robotics education requires a combination of technical understanding, classroom delivery skills, activity management, and student engagement, we follow a structured selection process.

The selection journey includes:

1. Interview and Practical Assessment

Candidates who successfully clear the interview and practical teaching assessment will receive a conditional offer for the Robotics Educator role.

Before independent classroom deployment, selected candidates must successfully complete a structured induction and certification program (typically 3-7 days in hybrid mode).

The certification process will include:

• EkaLavya teaching philosophy and pedagogy
• Robotics curriculum orientation
• Grade-wise learning journey
• Robotics kit handling
• Project execution
• Lab activities
• Classroom management

As Robotics is not a regular school subject and requires a different learning curve, we do not permanently deploy faculty members without observing their classroom readiness.

Every educator will receive continuous support, mentoring, and need-based training interventions.

Performance will be reviewed during the initial 1-6 month period through multiple feedback loops to ensure success for both the educator and students
