The Indian government has prioritized the biggest shift in national education since the last 34 years. This policy insists that educational institutes provide a more holistic value-based education to prepare the Indian youth for the challenges of today.
To meet the current demand in higher education institutions, BAPS has developed the Integrated Personality Development Course (IPDC). This course supports the requirements of the New Education Policy, to “build character, enable learners to be ethical, rational, compassionate, and caring, while at the same time prepare them for gainful, fulfilling employment” [NEP 2020, Page 3]. Through this course, college students continue to enjoy, understand, and practice priceless lessons, giving them the tools to build a brighter future.

IPDC developers surveyed many students to understand the learning needs of students today. “Exciting”, “relatable”, “interactive”, “enjoyable”, “tangible” – this is what they wanted and so that is exactly what we are delivering.
We believe that along with academics and practical skills, a student's holistic development should be built on a strong foundation of core character values such as positivity, resilience, humility and responsibility. This empowers youths to successfully progress in all aspects of their lives.
What do you get when you combine decades of experience and research, along with a passion for youth development? You get IPDC! The IPDC content, design and development was a global undertaking, bringing together a team of academics and youth development experts from around the world. The content has been curated especially for students, with the purpose of life-long retention and application.
We have replaced the boring lecture style with a high-tech learning experience. Our expert team of producers have introduced captivating short films, interactive visuals, dramatic narratives and ultra-high-definition (4K) shots. Enabling students to effectively engage with every topic.
Each lecture begins with a short film that introduces the topic through a modern production. The original content displays relatable scenarios and visuals that captivate the students’ attention and stimulates their curiosity to learn more.
Students watch a lecture video presented by a dynamic speaker. The lecture reinforces the significance and necessity of fundamental principles and skills. The experience of the speaker, eloquence of presentation, and use of interactive visuals collectively create a profound impact on each student’s mind and heart.
Interactive sessions promote stimulating discussion and conversation, and help create safe spaces for healthy exchange of ideas. Each session provides a forum in which students are able to openly express their emotions and thoughts.
Workbooks assist students to begin implementing the values taught in the lecture into their personal lives. Reliable research, priceless experience, practical scenarios, and reflective questions are innovatively depicted, motivating students to contemplate and think creatively.
The IPDC workbook perfectly complements the IPDC lectures and activities. Its engaging design, style, and content enables youths to revise and imbibe the invaluable lessons they have learnt and carry them forward into their professional life. In order to complete the IPDC course, each student is required to purchase and complete this workbook for study and submission.
