Education for lawmakers and policymakers

JGU shares knowledge with the people who make and apply law and policy, through training programmes, specialised courses, events and publications. Much of this work is led by the Jindal Institute of Leadership Development and Executive Education (JILDEE), which designs programmes for public officials together with the university’s schools. 

Training for Public Officers, 2025 

In 2025, JILDEE ran a series of on-campus programmes for officers of the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG), the body that audits public spending across central and state governments, as well as for senior officials from Bhutan. 

  1. Mid-Career Training Programmes for CAG officers, February 2025 – Two six-day programmes delivered with the Jindal School of Environment and Sustainability, with sessions on environmental challenges in India (11 and 19 February 2025). 
  2. Bhutan LEAD Programme, 24 to 28 February 2025 – A leadership course for senior officials from Bhutan, conducted by the Jindal Institute of Behavioural Sciences (JIBS), focusing on leadership, behavioural insights and policy implementation. 
  3. Mid-Career Training Programme, Batch 7, 10 to 15 March 2025 – A six-day programme for CAG officers, organised with JIBS. 
  4. Mid-Career Training Programme, Batch 8, 17 to 22 March 2025 – A further batch for CAG officers, covering governance, leadership and behavioural sciences. 
  5. Specialised Course on Law for CAG Officers, 17 to 21 March 2025 – A focused course on legal frameworks and governance, taught by faculty of Jindal Global Law School.

These programmes give officers who scrutinise public expenditure a grounding in law, governance, behavioural science and environmental risk, all of which shape how policy is implemented and held to account. 

Bringing Lawmakers and Jurists to Campus
