Basic skills refer to fundamental abilities and competencies that individuals need to effectively function in various aspects of life, particularly in education, work, and everyday tasks. These skills serve as building blocks for more complex abilities and are essential for personal development, learning, and successful participation in society. The objective of study is to analyse the institution-wise teachers’ viewpoint towards contribution of course curriculum in developing basic skills. For the study purpose data have been collected from 170 teachers of different educational institutions. Under the sample various IIMs, central, state and private universities have been covered. Data have been gathered from 30, 40, 50 and 50 teachers of IIMs, central, state and private universities respectively. After that collected data have been applied with the applications of ANOVA test. The outcomes of study revealed that he teachers of Central Universities focused on presentation skills, leadership skills, team- work skills, speaking skills and creativity skills. Whereas the teachers of State Universities emphasized on teamwork skills, speaking skills, presentation skills, creativity skills and analytical skills. On the other hand, the teachers of Private Universities gave priority to presentation skills, followed by speaking skills, strategic vision skills, teamwork skills and listening skills. However, the teachers of IIMs focused highly on speaking skills, presentation skills, teamwork skills, leadership skills and strategic vision skills. As a whole, the course curriculum is contributing significantly in developing the presentation skills, speaking skills, teamwork skills, creativity skills and strategic vision skills. For the better future of the students teachers must try to build good relation with students by understanding their problems and should try to develop basic as well as modern skills in their personality.
