History
The institute was established in April 1984 under the INSAT project. The institute has been registered as an independent organization on the 13th December 1994 under the Registration of Societies Act-1860.
The institute was started on small-scale bases at a temporary studio in the polytechnic hostel building at Ahmedabad. Subsequently, the essential resources were obtained, the staff was supplemented, technical training was provided to the staff members and other initial steps were taken. The production of the programmes began from December 1985. The institute moved to its present studio premises subsequently.
All the essential resources for the studio were provided to the institute by the government of India. Entire progress of the institute has been the result of valuable guidance from CIET New Delhi and NCERT New Delhi.

Production
The institute produces educational audio and video programmes. These programmes are educational, ethical and mainly aimed for teachers and a specific age group of children. Special care is taken to sustain and eventually improve the quality of these programmes. The programmes are broadcasted only after the pre-view committee assesses and approves them. The programmes are focused mainly on the teachers and children; therefore teachers play important role in preparing them too. The teachers often write the scripts of the programmes, teacher's help is taken in preparing the programmes once the script committee approves themThe institute has a collection of about 1000 educational programmes on variety of subjects at present. Around 200 programme VCDs are also available. These VCD are sold to the schools and others interested at a reasonable rate
