AITM has joined hands with two privately owned and managed colleges, namely Little Angels’ College (LAC) and Xavier Academy (XA) to form Nepal Education Foundation – Consortium of Colleges, Nepal, now known by its acronym NEF-CCN. The main objective of forming this consortium was to create an entity that could become a national university by virtue of its physical facilities, academic programs and excellent academic track record. NEF-CCN’s long-term objective is to become a truly international university, with international programs, international faculty and students by 2020.
