Project-Based Learning (PBL) replaces rote theory with real, industry-grade projects — students learn by building, are guided by industry mentors, and are graded on what they can actually do. It's the experiential model NEP 2020 and AICTE now mandate — and the fastest route from classroom to career.

The Challenge

Three gaps between the classroom and the job

Every placement season you invest heavily in preparing students. Yet the distance between what they learn and what employers want keeps growing.

Theory-heavy curriculum

Students graduate with strong concepts but no portfolio of real work. Recruiters reject most CVs at first pass — “no demonstrable projects.”

NEP + AICTE mandate

Compulsory industry internships, multidisciplinary capstones and outcome-based education — most colleges are still piecing this together with spreadsheets.

Faculty bandwidth crisis

Designing 30 unique projects a semester, finding industry mentors and grading 200 submissions is a full-time job before you even teach a class.

The result: NAAC / NBA / NIRF scores stall, recruiters skip campus, and your best students self-rescue with paid bootcamps — while the AICTE audit deadline keeps closing.

The Solution

Run project-based learning as a system

One platform that bundles a project marketplace, AI grading, a verified mentor network, AICTE compliance, an AI Coach and a Course Builder into a single student record — with audit-ready outcomes.

Experiential Learning · NEP-Credited

Internship, OJT and Field Project — every credited vertical, audit-ready

NEP splits work-integrated learning into separate, separately-credited components. Assessfy runs each one end to end — with hours, supervisor sign-off and the exact evidence your regulator asks for.

Each vertical is separately credited and separately evidenced — NEP annexure · AICTE ledger · NBA / NAAC outcome mapping, generated automatically.

Student Journey

From sign-up to certificate — five steps

The same pattern for every cohort. No paper, no spreadsheets, no “please email your guide.”

Browse marketplace

Filter by field, level, paid or free, and deadline.

02

Enroll / apply

Team-mode toggle; request a mentor if you want one.

03

Work the milestones

Daily diary, file uploads and mentor chat.

04

Accreditation-Ready by Design

Evidence for every regulator — not just one

Every project and submission feeds the outcome hierarchy automatically, so the reports reviewers ask for are one click away.

NBA

CO·PO·PSO attainment auto-computed (GAPC v4.0, Washington-Accord POs) → SAR Criterion 3, Tier I & II.

NAAC

One-click evidence for Criterion 2.6.2 — attainment of PO, PSO and CO, direct plus indirect.

AICTE

14–180 day internship pack: hours ledger, daily diary, 3-tier evaluator and audit-format PDF.

NEP 2020

Experiential, multidisciplinary, outcome-based learning with credits and verifiable evidence — by design.
