ATDC DG Darlie Koshy bags Holden Medal for Education

The director general and chief executive officer of Apparel Training & Design Centre

bagged this award for his outstanding contributions in technology based education

at various levels.

The Holden Medal for Education is a bi-annual award given by The Textile Institute,

UK. ‚I am delighted to be conferred the Holden Medal for Education by The Textile

Institute, UK which is a much valued international recognition for educators. No

single individual can claim the ownership of ideas and transformation of institutions

like NID, NIFT, ATDC, IAM where I have spent nearly three decades. Institutions

are bigger than people and I feel happy and honoured that I got right opportunities

mostly at the right time to make contribution in the education especially focused on

textile-apparel value chain. It was a great pleasure heading NID for nearly a decade

and being part of the founding team of NIFT during its formative years,‛ said

Koshy. He has also bagged many prestigious awards and accolades including IIT

Alumni award for contribution to Nation development and the Indian Star of

solidarity and the OGTC Path Breaker Award, 2014, among others. A doctorate in

management from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi, Koshy has been

also trained at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), New York in fashion

marketing & merchandising. He has been the recipient of the United Nations

Development Programme (UNDP) to carry out research on India’s destination

markets for apparel. He had established the fashion management department at the National

Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) New Delhi which he headed as senior professor and

chairperson from 1987 to 2000. He was also the director of NID, Ahmedabad from 2000 to 2009.
