What is CTET?
Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) is a benchmark test, being organized by CBSE at national level so as to find the right teachers for teaching from Class-I to Class-VIII. It is being held in 82 cities/towns covering all Indian states as well as in two centres abroad (Dubai and Riyadh). You can click here to download the list of city/town where CTET 2012 would be held.
CTET has been started as an offshoot of Right To Education (RTE) Act, 2009 for implementation of which a huge number of teachers would be required. Passing the CTET would enable you to get a job in Central schools (Kendriya Vidyalaya as well as Navodaya Vidyalaya) at present. But in the future state govt. as well as private schools are expected to uses CTET for selecting teachers.
