How does Field Literacy Lab align with the National Credit Framework (NCrF)?

Our programs are designed to map directly to the experiential learning and field-work credits required under the NCrF guidelines, simplifying the credit-transfer process for your Registrar.

What is the institutional commitment required?

We offer flexible partnership models – ranging from one-off specialized field audits for specific departments to long-term MOUs for annual student cohorts.

How do you ensure student safety during field immersions?

Every field site is pre-vetted. We maintain a strict student-to-mentor ratio and coordinate with local administrative and healthcare entities at every fieldwork location.

Can the fieldwork streams be customized for our specific curriculum?

Yes. While our four streams are the foundation, we can tailor the audit parameters to focus more on legal, engineering, or management aspects depending on your college’s specialization.

Does our faculty need to accompany the students during Phase 2?

While not mandatory, we encourage faculty participation. It serves as an excellent Faculty Development Program (FDP). For every batch of 30 students, we extend a complimentary onboarding for one faculty member. However, our mentors lead the immersion, allowing your faculty to observe or participate without the burden of logistical management.

How do we verify the “Notional Hours” for our internal credit audits?

Each student has a unique “Digital Ledger” on our portal. This logs time spent in Phase 1 (Archive) and Phase 3 (Reporting). For Phase 2, we provide a signed attendance and performance log. These can be exported as a verified PDF for your Registrar’s office.

Who owns the Intellectual Property (IP) of the FVPB reports generated?

We follow a Universal Data Sharing Model. The student and the institution retain the right to use the findings for academic papers, while the metadata-tagged report contributes to our collective research archive to help future learners.

What is the lead time for an MOU and Site Allocation?

Given the nature of our site selection, we recommend beginning the consultation 8–12 weeks before the intended immersion date.
