flexibility <strong>and</strong> freedom to learn especially to those who have missed the opportunity to complete school<br />
education.<br />
Over eighteen lakh learners are on the roll <strong>of</strong> NIOS for Secondary, Senior Secondary <strong>and</strong> Vocational<br />
Education Courses. NIOS has 16 Regional Centres <strong>and</strong> about 3500 study centres located all over India<br />
<strong>and</strong> in few other countries. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Open</strong> Basic Education (OBE) programme is being implemented in partnership<br />
with 353 Accredited Agencies (AAs). In addition to developing its own curriculum <strong>and</strong> self instructional<br />
material, NIOS has developed media support <strong>programmes</strong> utilizing expertise <strong>of</strong> faculty from renowned<br />
Academic <strong>and</strong> Vocational organizations. <strong>The</strong> Media Unit <strong>of</strong> NIOS has produced 338 <strong>Audio</strong> <strong>programmes</strong><br />
<strong>and</strong> 336 <strong>Video</strong> <strong>programmes</strong> (163 in Hindi, 146 in English <strong>and</strong> 27 in Urdu). <strong>The</strong>se are significant components<br />
<strong>of</strong> the multi channel package <strong>of</strong>fered by NIOS. <strong>The</strong>se <strong>Audio</strong>- <strong>Video</strong> cassettes are sent to the study centres<br />
(AIs, AVIs) <strong>and</strong> the Regional Centres <strong>of</strong> NIOS. <strong>The</strong> learners are allowed to take these <strong>Audio</strong>-<strong>Video</strong><br />
