IBPS has had a strong tradition of research and information sharing since its inception through the publication of in-house journal and periodicals such as Chintan, Spandan, Sajag, Suchayanika and Research Monograph. These in-house publications serve as a forum to convey and disseminate information on emerging areas, new developments and challenges in assessments as well as learnings from external programmes.
The quarterly house journal, provides information of meetings, events and activities happening in the Institute.
The half-yearly e-newsletter on risk management, titled “Sajag”, meaning ‘Watchful’ or ‘Alert’, covers risk incidents, like unfair mean problems faced during the examinations as well as positive developments, for instance quality initiatives, relating to the peer organisations in the niche sector of recruitment and promotion examinations.
An annual in-house publication, provides a platform for publication of research undertaken by faculty of the Institute as well as serving as a medium for scholarly discussion through publication of empirical research and academic articles across the spectrum of psychological testing and assessment.
The Institute publishes its annual magazine “Spandan’ to showcase creative abilities off its employees through articles, poetry and paintings.
