RKIP Faculty Accreditation Programme

A verified record
of academic excellence.

DHRONA combines automated cross-checking with independent expert review to give India's faculty a credential built on evidence โ€” not self-attestation.

About Dhrona

What accreditation should have been all along.

DHRONA is the faculty accreditation platform of RKIP โ€” built to recognize sustained contribution across five dimensions of academic life: teaching, research, institutional leadership, professionalism, and digital readiness.

Rather than a one-time form, DHRONA is a verification pipeline. DOIs are checked against Crossref. Course-code evidence is cross-referenced against the documents you link. Every application is reviewed independently by two assessors before a certification decision is made.

Features

How the verification actually works

Not a black box โ€” here's exactly what checks your application against.

01

The Five-Domain Framework

Teaching & Student Success, Research & Innovation, Academic Leadership, Professionalism, and Digital Readiness โ€” scored against a published rubric.

02

Automated cross-checks

Publication DOIs verified against Crossref. Curriculum evidence checked against linked documents. CVs screened for teaching-experience claims.

03

Dual independent assessment

Every application is reviewed by two assessors working separately โ€” neither sees the other's scores until certification review.

04

Transparent progress tracking

A live timeline down to the indicator level โ€” always know exactly what's left to complete.

05

Right to appeal

Disagree with a specific score? Request re-evaluation by a third, independent assessor.

06

Built for evidence

Every claim links to a real document โ€” nothing is scored on self-attestation alone.
