ALTC provides a setting for career improvement and coaching. The Avani Academic Council is comprised of Professors Neelkanth Chhaya, Roger Connah, Tony Joseph, and Vivek P P.

We were able to develop our communication skills and learn how to provide and accept constructive criticism through informal juries and critiques. It has promoted a greater understanding of teamwork as well as appreciation for the job we put our heart, soul, and sweat into, according to Ar. Tony Joseph, chairman and principal of the Avani Institute of Design.
The Council of Architecture has given Avani Institute of Design its approval and affiliation with the University of Calicut. (COA).
