# Dheya Teacher Intelligence Platform > A competency-first teacher evaluation and development platform for schools, > built by Dheya Career Mentors India Pvt. Ltd. (mentoring careers since 2008). > Schools buy prepaid assessment credits, select the competencies required for each > grade band and subject (or compose a battery straight from the assessment banks, > with competencies matched automatically), and the system assembles a five-lens > assessment battery per teacher — behavioural style, subject/pedagogy knowledge, > situational judgement, classroom skills, and self-report inventories — then > generates a printable development report, runs a complete gap analysis against > the selected competencies, builds a personalised development plan, and scores > every teacher's role match on a 1,000-point rating across five channels of > evidence. Re-assessment maps each teacher's growth journey cycle over cycle. Key facts: - Customers are schools; users are teachers. Payment, scoring, report generation, gap analysis and development planning run automatically with no human in the loop. - Credits are priced per module (behavioural style 1.8, subject knowledge 0.5, situational judgement 0.5, classroom skills 0.25, self-report 0.25); a full five-lens battery is 3.30 credits per teacher, reserved on invitation and consumed only on completion. - Reports are development-first and jargon-free: they describe style and evidence, never worth, and no single measure decides a high-stakes outcome. - Data protection: employer-owned data with row-level security, k-anonymised aggregate analytics, and self-serve data export/erasure for teachers (DPDP-aligned). - NEP 2020 alignment: every competency maps to NPST (National Professional Standards for Teachers, NCTE) codes across Core Values & Ethics, Knowledge & Practice and Professional Growth & Development; each teacher has a 50-hour CPD ledger for the academic year (plan actions bank hours automatically, external hours are logged with evidence and school-approved, pace is tracked pro rata); one-click aggregated evidence packs for SQAAF and NAAC accreditation. - Growth Passport: teacher-owned verifiable badges (full assessment completed, development-plan quarter complete, 50 CPD hours, measured growth between cycles), each with a public verification page and an Open-Badges-style JSON assertion. No scores are exposed and badges travel with the teacher between schools. - School benchmarking & certification: aggregate faculty percentiles against national platform norms (cells under 5 teachers suppressed), and "Dheya Certified · People-First School" status in three tiers — Certified (>=80% roster assessed, >=50% teachers with approved CPD hours), Gold (>=90% assessed, >=60% on CPD pace), Platinum (100% assessed, >=80% on pace) — reviewed and issued by Dheya, valid one year, publicly verifiable by link. Each teacher can also generate an annual Teacher Growth Report Card. - Delivery: the assessment runner is available in Hindi with more Indian languages planned; invitations and reminders go out over WhatsApp, SMS or email as private resumable links. For Gulf/MEA schools the evidence supports teacher-licensing preparation (UAE TLS, Saudi ETEC) and the architecture is Arabic-ready. Dheya is an independent platform; NEP/NPST alignment describes framework mapping, not government endorsement. ## Pages - [Home](https://teacher.dheya.com/): product overview - [Every stakeholder](https://teacher.dheya.com/#ecosystem): what teachers, principals, trustees, sponsors, students and staff each get - [For India](https://teacher.dheya.com/#for-india): why teacher growth matters for the country (NEP 2020 CPD context) - [For schools](https://teacher.dheya.com/for-schools): faculty evaluation and development - [For CSR & government](https://teacher.dheya.com/for-csr): sponsor-funded cohorts with aggregate outcome reporting - [How it works](https://teacher.dheya.com/how-it-works): the school journey (set up, invite, manage) and the teacher journey (assess, report, fit) side by side - [Growth Passport](https://teacher.dheya.com/growth-passport): teacher-owned verifiable badges — assessment, plan quarters, 50 CPD hours, measured growth - [Benchmarking & certification](https://teacher.dheya.com/certification): faculty percentiles vs national norms and the Dheya Certified · People-First School tiers - [Aligned to NEP 2020](https://teacher.dheya.com/#nep): NPST competency mapping, the 50-hour CPD ledger and SQAAF/NAAC evidence packs - [Pricing](https://teacher.dheya.com/pricing): free for individual teachers; prepaid credit packs for schools with per-module pricing - [Trust & DPDP](https://teacher.dheya.com/trust): governance, consent and data protection - [Research](https://teacher.dheya.com/research): methodology articles (citable) ## Research - Research articles are published at /research.
