INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR SPECIAL EDUCATION

About INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR SPECIAL EDUCATION

The Disabled Children Education Trust (DCET), the fountain-head of IISE, was established in the year 1991 in order to impart free-of-cost professional education to the disabled children of India. The DCET umbrella holds under its ambit the International Institute for Special Education (IISE) Society.

The IISE Society was registered in the same year, i.e., 1991 with the mission: “to settle in life through Management and IT education, primarily the poor disabled people (free education) and the normal people of India and the world”. The Society established an educational institute with the same name, International Institute for Special Education (IISE) in 1991. The governing body took the solemn vow to use the institution for accomplishing the mission and not to make money out of it. The vow continues to be honoured and the entire surplus generated is ploughed back into the institution. Moreover, the founder, Dr Girish Bihari had a strong and unassailable view that IISE will cater to that section of society who wants to send their children for management/IT education but cannot afford to pay the high fees charged by the educational institutions run by big business houses. Thus, the fees remained and continue to remain at one lakh minus. IISE has left no stone unturned in its untiring efforts to translate its avowed mission into concrete reality. The institution has always professed and practised the dictum of corporate social responsibility and believes in discharging this responsibility in right earnest. In fact, social upliftment of the ‘differently abled’ members of society is an integral part of the organizational philosophy that shapes IISE’s policies and programmes.

IISE, in entirety, is committed to identifying young people with professional and entrepreneurial aspirations, talents and determination and trigger them off to become excellent inspirational leaders in their chosen pursuits by developing in them skills, insights, abilities, healthy habits, right perspectives and clear vision. It focuses on holistic management education, training and conditioning of students through intellectual and informational inputs and activity oriented experiential, self discovering process to embolden them to assume responsibility, take charge and lead effectively.
