[edit] Proposed merger of ICFAI Business School- Case Development Centre

No Please keep it separate.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Rayvikram (talk • contribs)

Can you clarify why the Case Development Centre would need to have its own article? Accurizer 12:23, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Merge - It seems clear that the content from ICFAI Business School- Case Development Centre should be merged into the IBS-CDC of the ICFAI article. There isn't any indication that the Case Development Centre justifies its own article, and it would seem that combining the two would make the ICFAI article more complete and coherent. [[:Since no reasons have been provided within 6 days to retain both articles, I have completed the merger. Accurizer 14:21, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

It is the best University to learn the subjects.

[edit] ICFAI, recognised or not.???

Yes ICFAI is recognised for Distance Learning programs. In India a university need permission from UGC to operate , and permission from DEC to define courses.

ICFAI presently have permission from DEC.

[edit] ICFAI Controversy

What about the ongoing controversy related to the program that ICFAI offers under the CFA name? Are any courses offered by ICFAI recognised abroad? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 125.22.241.130 (talk) 04:34, 19 February 2007 (UTC). No courses of ICFAI (distance learning) are approved within India, so no question of being approved abroad

Answer: You should first understand the difference between charter and degree.. The controversy is in the charter and not in degree and all degree programs run by ICFAI are recognized as they are conducted by UGC recognised university not a private body unlike CFAI

[edit] Re-stubbifying the article

Pursuant to OTRS ticket 2007112910011623, I have taken a look at the content of this article. Since its start, this article has swung back and forth between a complete hatchet job and a whitewash -- neither is an acceptable form for a Wikipedia article. To assist in writing a proper article, it might help to review the policies on writing from a neutral point of view and how to handle a conflict of interest.

Also, it is important to note that you must provide a reliable source for any material added to the article. Pleas do not insert your own opinions; conversely marketing text is also against policy. Please feel free to leave a message on my talk page if I can help with any questions. Shell ^babelfish 00:27, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ICFAI Managment is using wikipedia and advertising platform

I am following up this page from last few months , and looks like there is some kind of fight between a group of people ( most probably students and ICFAI Management, Management is trying to use Wikipedia as a advertising platform to show case its products , which is against sprite of Wiki, ( Information ).

removing all course details, and adding DEC non approval as part of main topic, because i have conformed from DEC web site, DEC approval is mandatory ( ICFAI has already applied for it) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.75.200.19 (talk) 08:26, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Please do not vandalise

I had made the editings earlier and would like to make a point that I am in no way presently related to ICFAI or any of its affiliates. Whatever you had written about the DEC is not true. Anyone can check out the link http://www.dec.ac.in/provisional_recognition.htm . Two universities promoted by them is in the list of provisionally approved universities, Tripura and Dehradun. In future please refrain from making changes indiscrimantly, rather use this page so that the changes suggested by you can be incorporated in to the main article.Shovon 10:14, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Reconfirming that ICFAI Still do not have any approval for Selling Distance learning from DEC

Status of ICFAI Tripura and Dehradun is they have just applied for approval, which is is process of getting rejected because, they do not follow standerds specified by DEC.

The like given above http://www.dec.ac.in/provisional_recognition.htm do not work most of the time and , so cant trust —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.75.200.19 (talk) 11:03, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Changes to the Article

202.75.200.19, from Symantec, IT Park, Aundh Road, Pune, please do not make indiscriminate changes to any article, just because you do not like what is being written. Neither you or me are the permission granting authority for starting Distance Learning Courses, so it is better that we stick to the established facts and information that is available from the regulator in these matters. If you can't belive the information listed on the regulator's site, then that is your problem. And, try to construct coherent, meaningful and grammatically correct sentences. Shovon 19:09, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

MR Shovon , I have enough proofs that ICFAI currently do not have permissions from DEC.

1. I have called to Mr Raj Gopal ( Dean of SSD) of ICFAI to conform, according to him, ICFAI have applied for DEC approval.

2. I have raised a RTI ( Right to Information Act ) application to DEC about status of ICFAI approval, haven't got any response.

3. I have personally met Management Officers of IGNOU ( DEC ) in Pune university about status of ICFAI . the answer I Got from a double Ph.d teacher in his own words " those bastards are using ICFAI Hyd name to sell MBA, they don't even have permission from UGC or DEC, just want to make money @#$@$#@%$#$%&^$ ..... "

4. Mr M.Khan "ICFAI Business Development Manager West India" him self told me that it will take 2+ years to get DEC permission.

( I don't know from where you are, But in India any School or University is treated as temple, and expected to behave as one, and not as Business )

Do you want any other proof or should I give you there phone numbers to conform.

5. If ICFAI have DEC approval why don't they put a copy on there web site ??

[edit] For 202.75.200.19

Hi, you have said a lot of things in the talk page of the article ICFAI and pasted the same in my user page. In future, if you want to communicate with me, please use my Talk page. I have moved your opinions to my talk page. Regarding the DEC approval, please refer to the regulators site (http://www.dec.ac.in/provisional_recognition.htm/). I will not look beyond the ultimate authority's words on this matter. And regarding the moral high standards you would like to set with the temple sort of thing blah blah, I would like to say this much, "In India, we also respect the teachers as our elders and if a teacher utters words like @#$@$#@%$#$%&^$ ....., which I presume is some expletives and cannot be reproduced in toto, then I would have very scant regards for that kind of teacher, irrespective of his numbers of Ph.Ds. Oh, and by the way, it is well known that in India, you can buy a Ph.D thesis for a meagre sum of Rs. 5,000/-. And your temple like Universities only sell them." As I have stated earlier also, if you have a valid point, with suitable references, then please post it on the Talk page of the article so that relevant changes can be made. Thanks.

[edit] For All

Wikipedia can not be used as a template by organizations to display what all courses are offered. removing all the advertising content, also because there are many legally separate Institutes with name ICFAI, with different permissions for different things, adding a Advise to all Prospective student to do there research and not fall in trap of ICFAI. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Djj78 (talk • contribs) 05:51, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Please sign your comments by using for tildas ~. BTW, I have always asked you to first talk about the information in the talk pages. By you don't see any reason. Make one more unreferenced edit, and I will report you for Vandalism. Shovon (talk) 07:38, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
