GMCET: Standardizing Media Education Assessment in India

The media sector is changing at a very fast rate, which calls for an organized method of evaluating potential graduates. Meeting this demand is the Global Media Education Council (GMEC), which has come up with the Global Media Common Entrance Test (GMCET), a landmark move to standardize assessing those who aspire to have a career in media and communication.

The Role of GMEC in Media Education

GMEC is a renowned association with illustrious members representing diverse fields of the media and education sector. The Council makes major contributions to media education learning approaches, tools, and techniques that influence media education. Moreover, it has a significant role to play in hiring the most appropriate entry-level resources for media schools of education to ensure students receive proper preparation to meet the industry's dynamic demands.

Bridging the Gap Among Key Stakeholders

One of the core tasks of GMEC is to act as a bridge between three important stakeholders:

Media Educators (Institutes): To ensure that academic courses are in sync with industry requirements.

Learners (Trainees): To offer aspiring media professionals a standardized platform for assessment and skill evaluation.

Industry (Recruiters): To enable the selection of efficient graduates capable of contributing to the media industry.

Forming a Non-Profit Council in India

GMEC is being formed as a non-profit organization in Indian law, with the mission to promote excellence in media education. The project will first gain traction in India and then branch out with national chapters and an international body, further solidifying its influence on media education globally.

EdInbox: The Driving Force Behind GMEC

The establishment of GMEC and GMCET has been led by EdInbox.com, a leading Indian educational portal. EdInbox has been instrumental in the conceptualization and support of the initiative, guaranteeing its successful establishment and growth. The portal and management team will remain actively involved in fostering GMEC, offering strategic advice and industry expertise.

Launch of GMCET represents a milestone development in media education. By organizing the assessment procedure, GMEC seeks to establish a properly defined route of study for upcoming media professionals by aligning studies with industry requirement. With collaboration from EdInbox and influencers, GMEC is about to become the change agent it needs to help educators, learners, and the industry as well.
