RTI online Certificate Course conducted by the Department of Personnel and
Training
The Department of Personnel and Training has been
conducting an Right to Information Online Certificate Course in English since
the year 2009 and in Hindi and Telugu since the year 2012. The course is hosted
through Centre for Good Governance, Hyderabad on the url rtiocc.cgg.gov.in The
RTI online certificate course not only offers the benefit of
away-from-classroom-learning, but also provides a platform for reinforcing
one’s learning through interacting with experts and fellow candidates. This
course is open for all the citizens and is available free of cost.
2. The
CGG hosts two courses on RTI – a short duration course of 7-days and a longer
version of 15 days. The 7 days course is introductory in nature and does not
have chat window/moderator facility and does not carry any certificate.
However, this is treated as an eligible criterion for getting selection into
the longer version 15-days course.
3. The
15-day course is more intensive with practical orientation of applying the RTI
Act. This version of the course has the facility of discussion forum and
moderation. On successful completion of the course, an e-Certificate will be
issued.
4. It
is requested that the Public Information Officers and First Appellate
Authorities working in your Ministry/Department and public authorities under
your administrative control may be encouraged to enroll for the said Online
Certificate Course on RTI.
