From The Principal’s Desk…….

State College of Teacher Education (Formerly Nagaland College of Teacher Education) Kohima was established in 1975 by the State Government of Nagaland to impart quality and value based teacher education. It was affiliated to North Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Shillong, Meghalaya. In the year 1995, affiliation was transferred to Nagaland University , and included under 2(f) and 12 (B) of UGC Act. in the year 1988 and thereafter recognised by NCTE and upgraded to CTE in  March 1996. The institution aims at empowering the student teachers with the professional and social competencies to compete with the challenging world. The synergetic efforts of management, teaching staff, non-teaching staff and students, who have been working as a team with an excellent cooperation and zeal, proved as a great boon for this institution to grow from stature to strength in the pursuit of knowledge and excellence.
