About College

The Sibsagar College, Joysagar has created a new era in the domain of Teachers' Education in Sivasagar District as it has got formal recognition from National Council of Teachers Education (NCTE) to start B. Ed. Programme from this session (2015 - 2016) as "Department of Teachers Education" which is under the authority and jurisdiction of Sibsagar College, Joysagar. The Department of Teachers Education is affiliated to D.U. and is going to be the only teacher training institution in the entire district of Sivasagar, the erstwhile capital of the Ahom Kingdom who ruled Assam for nearly six hundred years. Also, it is going to be the first institution of its kind in the district bordering the states of Nagaland and Arunachal Pradesh since independence. This is the result of the tireless efforts of the administration of Sibsagar College, Joysagar and a handful of faculty members of the college and the unstinted support of the people of the area as a whole since 2007. This will cater to 1150253 people of the district with the literacy rate of 81.22 as per 2011 census report.
