A commitment to provide quality education in the teaching field
BLDEA established a College of Education in 1980. At the time of its inception, it was affiliated with Karnataka University, Dharwad. The college was the brainchild of Shri B M Patil, the then General Secretary of the BLDE Association. He was a farsighted visionary who recognized the need to provide quality education in the teaching field. Prof. N G Karur, the founder Principal of the institute, laid a strong foundation with a missionary zeal to develop the best teacher education institution in Karnataka.
