Abstract	Innovation is the key to success in every sphere of Life. Changes are happening in everyday life and one has to adapt to new situations and face challenges. Technical Education is no exception to this phenomenon. There is need to change curriculum and traditional teaching methods. This paper focuses on ‘Change Management’ and Re-engineering of Educational processes. IT has enormous potential and we can improve learning processes dramatically with IT as change enabler and innovation happens as a side product. Some of the paradigms discussed are Business Process Re-Engineering, Kaizen, and Six Sigma, e-learning etc. In spite of its complexity and long time taken for its implementation, reengineering the educational processes is the only solution to bring forth drastic changes and improvement in current Educational systems. Some of the problems in implementing BPR are resistance to change and lack of management support etc, resulting in failures. These problems can be circumvented by addressing critical success factors of Re-engineering. E-learning can be used successfully by harnessing the innovations happening in Internet and World Wide Web. In recent times emphasis is shifting from Instruction paradigm to learning paradigm and a learner centric approach will promote active learning. A case study was presented which introduces a new paradigm for students, an E-learning system which offers opportunities for alternative form of learning using powerful internet web site content creation, maintenance and web analytic tools.
