CBSE announces NISHTHA courses for teachers and school heads and adds more than 845 curriculum-aligned Virtual Labs to its DIKSHA platform. The initiative is announced for the upcoming academic session and is positioned as professional development for educators.

According to both outlets, the NISHTHA programs are intended to strengthen teaching and leadership capabilities. CBSE also makes it easier for students and teachers to access science and math learning resources via the DIKSHA app. The Virtual Labs are described as aligned with the CBSE curriculum and are made available through the digital platform.

While both reports cover the same core measures—NISHTHA courses and the expanded Virtual Labs collection—each outlet mainly focuses on either the training component or the DIKSHA content addition. Neither source provides additional details such as course duration, participation eligibility, or rollout timelines beyond the announcement for the upcoming session.
