Why it matters

Faculty who feel valued stay and shine.

Oncea year is not enough

Annual award functions honour a handful. Everyone else's good work goes unnoticed for months.

Unseeneffort walks away

When papers, feedback and extra hours aren't recognised, good teachers look elsewhere.

₹ fee"awards" for sale

Questions

About Acharya Rewards

How do faculty earn reward points?

Faculty earn reward points automatically from verified records across categories such as research papers, student feedback, attendance, results and course outcomes, upskilling and certification, mentoring, innovation, and industry or community service. Each institution chooses the categories and the points for each activity.

What do reward points lead to?

Points move faculty through Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum levels. Each level unlocks rewards the institution chooses, such as certificates, priority training seats, cash incentives, conference sponsorship or research grants. Top scorers are recognised as Star Faculty each month, Category Champions each term, and can be shortlisted for the Acharya National Faculty Award.

How do Acharya Rewards help retain faculty?

Acharya Rewards makes good work visible and rewarded throughout the year instead of once at an annual function. Faculty see a clear growth path and can earn more through incentives linked to points, while management can see and reward its top performers before they think of leaving.

Is there a fee for the National Faculty Award?

No. Acharya Rewards never charges nominees or nominators. The national awards are funded by partners, judged on evidence by a published jury, and shortlists are made public.
