The brain child of President Dr. Suresh Nair and Secretary Mrs. Deepa Desai, CIRDI is a platform where teachers and educators are maneuvered to outpace their present proficiency and mentor the student community through local and international mentorship.
In his welcome address President Dr. Suresh Nair, shared his vision for CIRDI which is to be the centre of possibilities for educationists, corporate and social organizations in bringing sustainable development towards economic, literacy, inclusion and individual aspirations which will help in the growth and evolution of teachers.
Dr. A.P. Jayaraman, former Nuclear Scientist-BARC, the guest speaker at the event in his speech equated E (education) = F (future).

Mrs. Monica Naithani, Head – Times NIE – The Times of India, in her speech drew parallels from education in the past to the present and also discussed the need to revamp the present system of education as it places heavy burden on a student during the process of learning. She highlighted the role of spirituality in the traditional way of learning to the evolved pattern which is a result of western influence and shared her views on the massive transformation in the field of education which the world will be witnessing in the coming years.
