Document background
The Service Learning Agreement serves as a crucial document in the Indian educational landscape, bridging academic learning with community service. This agreement is typically used when educational institutions implement credit-based service learning programs that combine academic studies with meaningful community service. The document addresses the requirements of Indian contract law, educational regulations, and UGC guidelines while establishing clear parameters for program implementation, risk management, and educational outcomes. A Service Learning Agreement becomes necessary when institutions seek to formalize their service-learning initiatives, protect all parties' interests, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements. It includes comprehensive details about program structure, supervision, assessment methods, safety protocols, and the respective responsibilities of the educational institution, students, and community partners.
