CIMAGE Becomes Only AKU-Affiliated College with NAAC B++ Accreditation


Patna, Bihar – In a moment of immense pride and inspiration, CIMAGE Professional College, Patna, has been awarded a B++ Grade in its first NAAC (National Assessment and Accreditation Council) cycle. This prestigious recognition is not just a grade—it’s a testimony to the institution’s relentless commitment to academic excellence, skill-based learning, and holistic student development.

Among over 90 colleges under Aryabhatta Knowledge University (AKU) offering courses like BBA and BCA, CIMAGE Professional College stands alone as the only institution to be successfully accredited with a B++ Grade in its very first attempt. In fact, it is the only college affiliated with AKU to have achieved accreditation at present. While a Digha-based college was once accredited, it is no longer a part of the Aryabhatta University system.

This recognition is not just a feather in the cap but a validation of the CIMAGE ethos—"Industry-Ready, Globally Competent". It marks a milestone in the institution's pursuit of quality, discipline, and dynamic education.

The Journey of Accreditation: A Foundation for Future Excellence

Getting NAAC accreditation is no small feat, especially in the first assessment cycle. The process is rigorous, deeply analytical, and documentation-intensive. While CIMAGE has always focused on action-oriented work—from conducting high-impact seminars and workshops to designing skill-based add-on courses and ensuring excellent placement support—the challenge lay in documenting all of it for external validation.

Despite these hurdles, the college managed to put forward a strong case that highlighted its:

·         Pedagogical innovation

·         Industry-oriented curriculum

·         Student-centric approach

·         Workshops, seminars & skill enhancement programs

·         Consistent placement drives

·         Social extension activities

These efforts made a strong impression on the NAAC peer team and earned the college this commendable B++ grade.

A Missed A Grade, But a Mission Strengthened

While the entire CIMAGE family is proud of the B++ Grade, there is a shared reflection that the institution narrowly missed the 'A' Grade—not due to lack of quality or impact, but primarily due to limited documentation of the tremendous work already being done.

Director Neeraj Agrawal Sir, reflecting on the result, shared with the team that this was only the beginning. “This was our first NAAC cycle. We did make some mistakes, especially in presenting our work properly through documents. But it was a learning phase. NAAC isn’t just about evaluation—it’s about institutional growth,” he stated.

Unlike some institutions that focus more on paperwork than real educational delivery, CIMAGE has always prioritized real-time student development, skill training, and mentorship. But now, with the NAAC experience, the college is committed to marrying impactful work with strategic documentation to ensure even stronger representation in the next cycle.

Why NAAC Matters for Students and Parents

In today’s education landscape, NAAC accreditation plays a vital role in helping students and parents identify institutions that meet national quality standards. A NAAC grade reflects:

·         The overall academic environment

·         The effectiveness of teaching-learning practices

·         The availability of infrastructure and student support services

·         The institution’s ability to deliver employable and capable graduates

With a B++ Grade, CIMAGE Professional College stands as a trusted, verified, and promising choice for students aspiring for professional degrees like BBA,BCA, B.Com (P), and B.Sc IT.

Congratulations to the Entire CIMAGE Family

This achievement is not just about infrastructure or faculty—it reflects the collective effort of every student, every teacher, every counselor, and every member of the management. It's about belief, dedication, and the spirit to constantly improve.

On this historic milestone, heartfelt congratulations are extended to all past and present team members, faculty, staff, and most importantly, the students—who are the real ambassadors of CIMAGE’s success.

Looking Ahead: A Stronger, Smarter Future

The B++ grade is not the end—it’s the beginning of a new chapter. The journey ahead is about leveraging the learnings from this experience, focusing more on data-driven evidence, and ensuring that the world gets to see the great work happening inside CIMAGE.

From smart classrooms to startup incubation, from corporate placements to rural outreach, CIMAGE will continue to lead as Bihar’s most progressive and NAAC-accredited professional college.
