NIOS

NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling) is an organization in India that provides flexible, open education options for students who want to complete their schooling outside traditional schools. It offers courses for secondary (10th grade) and senior secondary (12th grade) levels, allowing learners to study at their own pace and location. NIOS is ideal for students who need alternative pathways due to various reasons, such as work, health, or personal circumstances. It maintains the same academic standards as regular schools and provides recognized certification upon course completion, promoting lifelong learning and wider access to education.
