“Educationists should build the capacities of the spirit of inquiry, creativity, entrepreneurial and moral leadership among students and become their role model.”
-Dr APJ Abdul Kalam

Education is the most powerful weapon which we can use to change the world. It is a process of acquiring knowledge, skills, values, beliefs and habits. Education helps us to realize our self and prepares us to meet new challenges too. In the process of education, teacher education is a programme that is related to the
development of teacher proficiency and competence that would enable and empower the teacher to meet the requirements of the profession and face the challenges therein. We believe that Education cannot be imparted in vacuum to the children, it is only a teacher who can shape the clay and mould it according to the requirements of time and trends of the society. There is no doubt that education is the instrument of social change. But it is the teacher who plays his positive role in bringing such a change. The teacher has to identify the talents and potentials hidden in the learner and nurture these. Teacher is bestowed with the greatest responsibility of nurturing the mind of learners. Practical aspect of training the teachers is emphasized and taken care of special attention to foster among its faculty and students. Al-Azhar Training College is scaling new heights in academic excellence and social commitment. As a part of this institution I would like to express that I feel immense pleasure and convey my heartfelt welcome to our college. I wish you great success in academic mission.
